In the medical diagnostics market, electric drives are used in a wide range of applications
Applications - from simple material handling to complex pick & place applications.
Place applications. The type of medium is extremely flexible - it ranges from From liquids with different viscosities to solids such as human or animal tissue animal tissue. This diversity opens up a wide range of product variations of electric drives for controlling medical devices. Integrated in a wide variety of Applications, electric drives make a significant contribution to making everyday work in the medical more efficient and comfortable in the medical field.

Each application brings with it a multitude of requirements that must be taken into account when designing must be taken into account when designing a diagnostic machine. Smooth running, good controllability,accuracy, long service life and freedom from wear and maintenance are essential Criteria for manufacturers of diagnostic machines - especially as linear motors generate hardly any to no wear particles, which is essential for clean diagnostic conditions
essential for clean diagnostic conditions. It is particularly important in the medical/diagnostic sector, always be at the cutting edge of technology in order to offer doctors and patients the most
innovative solutions to doctors and patients. This prompts design engineers to always be on the

System is improved and machine performance is increased. Above all, the increasing Number of tests, such as blood counts, inevitably leads to automation of the test Automation of the test equipment. Large laboratories are already looking for compact, modular test cells that can be expanded with little effort even as demand increases with little effort. Another important criterion is rapid reporting and transfer of test transfer of test results to the doctor and patient.

Dunkermotoren presents a unique solution for handling the samples. With the linear motors (ServoLinear and ServoTube), Dunkermotoren offers the market a solution that can be a solution that can be used very flexibly. From individual axes to multi-axis Highly dynamic and flexible linear modules are specially tailored to the customer's needs Tailored to the customer's needs. The linear motors in the ServoLinear and ServoTube series ServoTube series impress with aximum acceleration, speed and precision - without without any backlash or hysteresis, as is common with gear or threaded systems which clearly sets them apart from other linear technologies, such as spindle or belt systems Belt systems, for example. Thanks to the integrated sine-cosine encoder, the position can always be Position can always be determined precisely and absolutely, with accuracies of up to 6 μm. For even higher requirements with 1 μm, precision linear absolute encoders can be used can be used.

A linear motor from Dunkermotoren is very modular and can be used in different Versions, with the same performance and handling, can be adapted to any application - many of them many of them are self-guiding, making additional guide elements in compact systems superfluous
systems: as an actuator, component, TwinGuide, module or even as a stainless steel version
Stainless steel version.

Each of these designs offers maximum precision and a long service life - depending on the application, running Depending on the application, running performances of more than 50,000 km can be achieved, without any Lubrication. This minimizes maintenance and reduces the risk of contamination in sensitive environments in sensitive environments. The 3-phase motor with integrated 1 Vpp SIN/COS Feedback can be connected to numerous servo controllers from various well-known manufacturers manufacturers. The connection principle of the linear motors is comparable to that of a to a commercially available rotary servo motor with sin/cos encoder system. This means that Integration into any control concept of the machine manufacturer is simple and flexible possible. The advantages of the linear motors, as well as their modularity and flexibility, are an explanatory video on our website or our Dunkermotoren social media channels

A perfectly matched linear motor package for the ServoTubes 25/38 and ServoLinear 38 is offered by Dunkermotoren with the DME 230x4 or DME400x8 servo controller series. The Hardware and settings of the controller are matched to the linear motors and make  ommissioning make  commissioning even easier. The customer can control the motors in two ways either via one of the widely used bus systems (Profinet, Ethercat or CANopen) or digital signals (24 V inputs or outputs).

If the latter is the case, the customer has the option of saving a sequence program in the controller to save a sequence program in the controller. With a maximum of 500 programming lines, complex travel profiles can be realized without a higher-level bus system.

Even the use of a single linear motor can offer customers enormous benefits thanks to its very high cycle times and controllability And its controllability can offer the customer enormous advantages - with virtually noiseless operation, which is which is particularly advantageous in quiet laboratory environments. Especially in comparison to other Linear technologies, as the acquisition costs are reduced within a short space of time thanks to the the increased machine performance, lower operating costs and constant force output over the entire service life
over the entire service life. However, if the rod-guided Direct motors are used within a multi-axis system, two linear motors can also Linear motors can perform highly complex movements independently of each other. A gantry is usually constructed as an XYZ or XYYZ variant. With the linear motor Dunkermotoren's linear motor multi-axis systems allow several motors to be moved
can be moved differently from one another. With this type of multi-axis system higher machine outputs are realized than with typical pick & place robots.
Thanks to the use of programmable S-ramps, the linear motors from Dunkermotoren's linear motors are able to handle even very sensitive products evenly without causing the slightest damage to the samples or components - even if these Movements take place simultaneously and under maximum dynamics. With larger loads and only dynamics in the Z-axis, there is the option of using another linear product (CASM cylinder) from Dunkermotoren. The CASM series (electric
Series (electric lifting cylinders) is also a perfect 1:1 replacement for pneumatic cylinders in sizes 32-63. In addition, the Z-axis can be held in position, even when de-energized Even when de-energized.
