Linear axes are long-travel positioning systems for assembly cells, gantries and pick-and-place — where the application needs high dynamics, high repeat accuracy, and a long traverse path in a single rail. The IMI Bahr DSM 120 / 160 / 200 family uses a linear synchronous AC motor built into a rectangular aluminium profile with integrated rail guidance — the carriage rides on permanent magnets in the profile, and several carriages can be driven independently on one profile. The right pick when a ball-screw cylinder is too short or too slow for the job.
Linear axis system
Linear motor (DSM) wins on long travel, high dynamics, multi-carriage and high accuracy at long stroke. Ball-screw (E/809000) is cheaper, simpler and is the right choice for short travel (typically under 1 m), modest dynamics, single-carriage applications. The pivot is usually stroke length and dynamics: if you need more than ~2 m at high speed, look at linear motor.
Multiple — the linear-motor architecture allows several primary parts (carriages) to be driven independently on the same secondary (profile). The practical limit depends on profile length, motor controller channels and the application logic. Common use case: 2 to 4 carriages on a 4–6 m profile for multi-station assembly.
±0.05 mm up to 4000 mm, ±0.1 mm above 4000 mm. The achieved positioning accuracy will depend on the motor controller, the encoder resolution and the workload — the DSM mechanical platform is not the limiting factor.
By T-slots in the aluminium profile. The unit can be combined with any T-slot profile system, which makes the DSM straightforward to integrate into existing frame designs. Mounting sets are available; carriage mounting is also by T-slots.
