ESR Pollmeier GmbH - Servo Drive Technology

Linear Motor Components

For linear movements with high dynamics at high precision, we offer our linear motors which are available as assembled linear drive systems. For detailed information, please see page Linear Motors.

As an alternative, the linear motor components are also available individually to be integrated directly into the linear axis of a machine. This way, linear movements can be realized in a space saving way.
