Industrial devices corporation have announced that their thrust tube tubular linear motors have passed the class 1 clean room compliance tests carried out by the fraunhofer institute in germany. In accordance with us federal standard 209e, the standard thrust tube module meets the most stringent clean room requirements at transfer speeds of up to 0.1 m/s, or 250 inches/minute. These patented drive systems are highly suitable for all applications using clean room environments, such as semiconductor manufacturing. They also allow machine builders to achieve greater control, speed and accuracy in positioning and handling applications. Standard thrust tube systems combine precision, performance and reliability with near silent operation. They are available as plug and play modules, and are compatible with industry standard servo drives. Optimum use of energy is guaranteed because all of the coils cut all of the flux, producing direct linear thrust. With no precision air gaps or precision alignment necessary, these systems provide quick and easy installation. 13427 13429
