The ServoTube Module with fully integrated bearing
rail and position encoder offers unprecedented value in
high performance applications. The ServoTube Module
is a cost effective alternative to ballscrew and belt drive
systems where high speed and flexibility are required.
1V pk-pk sin/cos signal. For applications requiring higher
levels of accuracy, the ServoTube Module is available
with a fully integrated optical position encoder giving a
resolution of up to 1 micron.
The non-contact nature of the direct linear drive results
in life expectancy far above that for typical belt drive
and ballscrew systems, with the added advantage of no
deterioration in accuracy or repeatability over the entire
life of the product.
The ServoTube Module is an ideal OEM solution for
easy integration into pick-and-place gantry and general
purpose material handling machines. The load is
mounted directly to the forcer giving a very stable base.
Servotube Modules can be easily integrated with each
other or with other ServoTube products to create multi
axis systems with minimal design effort.
The ServoTube has superior thermal efficiency, radiating
heat uniformly. High duty cycles are possible without the
need for forced-air or water cooling.
Servotube is complemented by a range of matched, self
tuning servo-amplifiers and indexers complete with plug
and play cabling. Amplifiers interface easily to PLCs and
feature CANopen network connectivity for distributed
control applications.

Product Overview
Four models deliver a continuous force of 9~27N (2~6lb)
with peak forces of up to 92N (21lb). Standard stroke
lengths of 28~825 mm are available.
The magnetic design of ServoTube generates 12 micron
repeatability and 350 micron absolute accuracy, from
a non-contact, integral position sensor. The standard
ServoTube position encoder output is an industry standard
