SIMOTICS L are the first choice when maximum dynamics and precision are required. Their compact, high‑force linear drive performance with wear‑free power transmission enables exceptional dynamics, contour accuracy and precision — perfectly matched with SINAMICS S120/S220 for high‑performance machine tools and production systems.

The linear direct drive principle eliminates mechanical wear components, resulting in practically wear-free and low-maintenance motor operation.

With water-cooled peak load and continuous load versions as well as naturally cooled variants, SIMOTICS L covers everything from high-dynamic machining to grinding, oscillating axes and Z axes without counterbalance.

A comparatively large air gap ensures stable, resilient performance even under external influences such as contamination or misalignment, making the motors suitable for challenging industrial environments.

With direct drive technology, the motors avoid elasticity, backlash, friction and natural oscillations in the drivetrain — enabling exceptional contour accuracy and highly dynamic axis movement.

The robust electromagnetic design delivers enormous continuous and peak forces while maintaining a compact footprint, suitable for fast acceleration and demanding machining processes.

A wide selection of motor widths, lengths and action types allows precise customization to machine concepts, ensuring optimal dynamics, force capability and thermal behavior.

It can be hard to improve a product that is already extremely efficient. But with a new drive concept and an innovative software solution running on Industrial Edge, the Italian company Magic MP reaches new levels of efficiency and sustainability in its latest generation of extrusion blow molding machines.

SIMOTICS L‑1FN3 uses direct linear drive technology, which avoids elasticity, backlash, friction and natural oscillation found in mechanical transmission systems. This results in significantly higher contour accuracy and dynamic performance.

The portfolio includes water‑cooled versions for both peak‑load and continuous‑load operation, offering maximum force and speed, as well as naturally cooled versions for simpler integration and applications with lower thermal loads. The optimal choice depends on force demand, duty cycle and thermal behavior of the machine.

Typical applications include high‑dynamic machine tools, laser machining, handling systems, grinding, non‑circular machining and Z‑axes without counterbalance, where maximum precision, dynamic response or rugged operation are required.
