Linear motors 1FN6
The electrical gear rack
With the 1FN6 series, Siemens offers a non-ventilated synchronous linear motor that stands out due to its magnet-free secondary section. This enables highly dynamic applications with long traverse distances to be implemented cost-effectively. Furthermore, the magnet-free secondary section ensures that the highly dynamic linear motor can be used in environmental conditions in which the usage of magnetic secondary parts is not normally desired.
As the shape of the secondary section resembles a gear rack and can potentially be used in place of a classic gear rack solution, the term "Electrical gear rack" has been coined for the 1FN6 linear motor.

1FN6 linear motors - typical application areas
Due to the magnet-free secondary section track, the 1FN6 is ideal for highly dynamic applications with long traverse paths or for applications in which the use of magnetic secondary sections is undesirable.
- Linked systems, installation and transfer lines
- Operation portals and robotics applications with long traverse paths
- Water jet and laser cutting machines with long horizontal traverse axes
