GVCM-051-051-05 linear voice coil motor with internal shaft and bearing

Product Overview

The GVCM-051-051-05 is a brushless linear voice coil motor with an integrated shaft and internal bearing for guided, direct-drive motion. Its 2.000 in. (50.8 mm) housing provides a 1.00 inch (25.4 mm) stroke, 6.6 lb (29.3 N) of continuous force, and 20.8 lb (92.6 N) of intermittent force at a 10% duty cycle.

Performance and Construction

The non-commutated direct drive design produces smooth bidirectional force proportional to coil current. With no gears, lead screws, or mechanical transmission components, the motor provides zero cogging, rapid acceleration and deceleration, quiet operation, and zero mechanical backlash when the load is coupled directly to the shaft. The housing length is 2.00 inch (50.8 mm).

Key Features

• Integrated shaft and internal bearing for guided linear motion
• Direct-drive brushless operation with no cogging
• Zero mechanical backlash when directly coupled to the load
• Smooth, controllable force proportional to current
• High acceleration, rapid reversal, and responsive servo performance
• Compact cylindrical housing for space-constrained equipment
• Threaded mounting and shaft features for straightforward integration

Applications

Industrial Automation: Assembly, workholding, clamping, sorting, packaging, inspection, and valve actuation.
Medical and Scientific Equipment: Test systems, laboratory automation, optical focusing, and precision positioning.
Semiconductor and Motion Control: Wafer handling, scanners, vibration control, and short-stroke servo mechanisms.

Mechanical Integration and Closed-Loop Control

The built-in shaft and bearing simplify load alignment and provide guided linear travel. For closed-loop position or velocity control, combine the motor with a suitable position sensor, servo controller, and current amplifier. Final accuracy and repeatability depend on the feedback sensor, load, mounting stiffness, controller, and servo tuning.
