Linear Motion Systems Applications
Decades of Application Experience

Thomson has one of the broadest ranges of linear motion systems on the market. We also
provide a large number of components and accessories, such as gearheads, intermediate
shafts, mounting kits and sensors to help optimize a solution for your application.

Handling and packaging

Use linear motion systems for
economical point-to-point transport
motion. Speed, long stroke and/or
environmental protection may be critical
parameters that many times can be
addressed by using Thomson linear
motion systems.
Printing and scanning
Linear motion systems can cover the large
areas, high speeds and acceleration rates
at the accuracy required for this type of
equipment.

Food processing
Fully enclosed units, also available with
enhanced environmental protection,
make linear motion systems suited for
the often wet and humid conditions in the
food industry where cleaning with high-
pressure water is common.

Filling and dispensing

Relatively short, rapid
movements at high duty cycle,
low load and medium accuracy
are common in these types
of machines. Linear motion
systems are often used in these
applications and especially those
with belt drives.

Linear Motion Systems Applications

Decades of Application Experience

Factory automation
Factory automation is a general term for a large
range of applications, and the requirements for
speed, load, accuracy and other parameters
vary. The variety of Thomson linear motion
systems makes them a versatile and flexible
building block in the design of factory
automation equipment.

Machining, test and measurement

This type of equipment requires linear motion
systems with the highest accuracy, stiffness
and rigidity.

Medical diagnostics/treatment equipment

Given the precision of these devices, linear
unit systems need to be quiet and smooth,
while at the same time, able to handle
high loads accurately. Reliability, safety
and low maintenance are also crucial
parameters in medical equipment. Thomson
has successfully supplied linear motion
systems to this type of equipment for many
decades.

Patient handling/ergonomic lifting devices

You can find linear motion systems in many
types of adjustable tables, lifting devices,
examination equipment and different kind
of manipulators.

Lab automation
In this type of equipment, relatively light loads have to
be moved short distances accurately and quickly. It is
also important to keep the smallest possible footprint
and not contaminate the environment. Thomson offers
several linear motion systems that are well suited for
these types of applications.

Micron DT, DTR Planetary Gears, how to order

When ordering a DT or DTR planetary gear you need to state the size and type of gear, which side of the unit the gear shall be installed, the gear
ratio and which motor that you wish to use. For DTR you also must state the preferred mounting position of the gear. With this information we can
check if your choice of motor is possible or not and give you the correct ordering code for the gear.

Mounts to support end of 2HB, 2RB, and 2DB units. The brake engages
upon loss of power and provides resistance to back drive rotation of
ball screws due to gravitational forces when power is interrupted to
the brake unit. They are pre-burnished for maximum torque capacity
and come with standard NEMA 23, 34 or 42 mounting patterns for easy
field retrofit. Compact size minimizes change to the overall system
envelope. The 2HB, 2RB, and 2DB ordering keys can be configured

Limit switches for these units can not be moved. On all other units the switches can be re-positioned by the customer. 2 Value in brackets = for short carriage.

The ES limit switch assembly is an option that is

mounted at the factory. The limit switches are
placed 10 mm from the mechanical ends of the unit.
Each limit switch has one NO and one NC contact
with positive opening action. Protection degree is
IP67. Type I and II switches can be repositioned
along the profile by the customer. Note! The ES
limit switch option and any of the sensor rail
options ENT14x16, ENF14x16 or ENK can not be
mounted on the same side of the unit.

The ENT14x16 inductive sensor rail is mounted to the side of a unit or along any type of beam or profile.
Sensors of type EN2 can be mounted in the rail. The rail can also serve as a cable duct for the sensor cables.
The rail is sealed with a cover which comes with the rail. The rail comes in lengths of max 3000 mm. Drilling
in the profile of the unit is required when mounting the rail. When ordering, specify part number and length
of the rail. Note1! WM120 and WV120 units do not require any rail as the EN2 sensors can be fitted directly to
the profile of the units. Note2! ES limit switch option and ENT14x16 rail can not be mounted on the same side
of the unit.

The ENF and ENK inductive sensor rail option kits

ENF are mounted at the factory. The ENF option consists
of two 500 mm long ENT14x16 sensor rails mounted
in each end of the unit on the left or right side of the
profile. In cases where the unit is too short to allow
two 500 mm sensor rails to be mounted, then one rail
is mounted along the entire profile of the unit. The
ENK option also consists of ENT14 x16 sensor rails
but the ENK option has sensor profiles that run along
the entire profile of the unit. In the shipment of both
ENF and ENK the specified amount and type of EN2
sensors are included. The sensors are fitted to the
sensor rail by the customer at the desired positions.

Note1! WM120 and WV120 units do not require any

ENK ENF or ENK options as the EN2 sensors can be fitted
directly to the profile of the units.
Note2! The ES limit switch option and ENF rail can
not be mounted on the same side of the unit.
Note3! Movopart M50/75/100 units require adapter
plates for mounting the ENF/ENK to the profile. See
page 121 for adapter plate dimensions.

Backlash
Backlash is the stack up of tolerances (play) within the leadscrew/belt
transmission assembly and gearing which creates a dead band when
changing directions. The result is that the motor can rotate some before
any motion can be seen on the carriage when reversing the direction of
the motor rotation. The backlash varies depending of the liner motion

A ball guide consists of a ball rail and a ball bushing. The ball rail is made
of hardened steel and runs along the inside of the profile. The ball bushing Bearing Housing

Belt Drive
A belt drive consists of a toothed belt which is attached to the carriage
of the unit. The belt runs between two pulleys positioned at either end
of the profile. One pulley is attached to the motor via the drive shaft in
the drive station while the other is mounted in a tension station. The
belts are made of plastic reinforced with steel cords. High speeds, long
stroke, low noise and low overall weight are typical features of belt

the gear ratio. Belt gears are quiet, have medium accuracy and require
no maintenance but are susceptible to belt breakage under overload
conditions.

Brake
None of the units are equipped with a brake or are self-locking which
means that a vertical unit will drop the carriage/load if no external brake
(such as a brake in the motor, etc.) is applied to the drive shaft. In the
case of belt driven units care must be taken as the carriage/load will drop A
immediately in the case of a belt breakage. This is particularly important
in vertical applications. You also may want to incorporate a brake in to the
system to ensure fast and secure stops at an emergency stop or a power
failure. In this case the brake should be of the failsafe type, i.e. a brake that
is engaged when power is off and lifted when it is on.

Carriage

The drive shaft is the is the shaft to which the motor is connected, either
directly, via a bell house flange or via a gear box. There are many sizes

End of Stroke Limit Switches
If a unit runs at speed to the ends of its stroke there is a risk of damage.
Damage can be prevented by using end of stroke limit switches to detect
and engage a brake and/or cut power to the motor when the unit nears the
end of the unit. You must ensure that there is sufficient distance between
the end of stroke limit switch and the end of the unit, to allow the carriage
to come to a complete stop before colliding with the end. The required
stopping distance depends on the speed and the load and will have to be
calculated for each application. The stopping distance must be taken into
account when defining the necessary stroke.
