Modular Electric HMR Linear Drives
6 Brief Description and Function
6.1 General
The HMR catalog contains extensive information on the following:
• Dimensions, space requirements
• Load-carrying capacity, forces and torques
• Weights and further technical data
The electric linear drives from the HMR series may only be operated within the permissible specications.
We reserve the right to make technical changes.
6.2 Setup and Mode of Action
The electric HMR linear drives are used for the linear moving and positioning of an external payload. A combination of
multiple linear drives allows the spatially oriented movements to be achieved. When the linear drive and the payload
are in motion, a force is exerted in the direction of movement.
• A payload is fastened at the pre-existing threaded holes on the carriage.
• The carriage is connected to a Drive Type (screw, toothed belt) and is moved by this Drive Type.
• The carriage is mounted on a linear guide system in a movable manner; the linear guide system is fastened to the
prole version.
• The prole version is fastened directly onto a substructure.
• The “reinforced” prole can also be used as a self-supporting structure. In doing so, attention must be paid to the
permissible loads.
• A cover can be constructed on the linear drive to reduce the penetration and discharge of dirt or abrasion.
• Lubrication can be carried out during service as needed via external lubricating nipples.
• A position signal can occur through magnetic switches mounted on the inside or outside, which are switched by a
magnetic package on the carriage.
• A displacement signal of the linearly moving carriage can be achieved by means of an installed displacement
measuring system.
6.3 Prole versions and Carrier
A carriage is moved and force exerted through a rotational movement at the drive shaft.
A carriage is linearly moved by a rotating ball screw drive driven by the motor; the carriage is mounted on a guide
system in a movable manner. The screw turns clockwise.
The load to be moved is fastened onto the carriage.
The permissible thrust force, speed and the linear displacement per rotation of the drive shaft depends on the
design of the screw used.
