Term definitions

Winding type
The winding type describes the structure of the windings. Depending on the coil unit this can be the N-type or the S-type, which differ in their electrical values. The N-type (normal) represents the standard. The S-type (speed) is characterized by a higher max. speed and a higher current consumption.

Peak force Fp (N)
The peak force specifies the maximum force of the motor. It cannot be constantly generated.

Peak current (IPa)
The peak current is the maximum permissible current.

Continuous force with air cooling (Fca)
The air-cooled motor can apply the force continuously, without water cooling. The value is specified for a motor with an aluminum cooling surface (thermal resistance 0.05K/W) at 20 °C.

Continuous power loss (Pca)
The continuous power dissipation is the max. power dissipation of the motor. It can be used for the calculation of the cooling systems.

Power constant (Kf)
The power constant specifies how much force in Newtons the motor generates with 1A effective sine current.
The following applies: F=I x Kf (up to I = 2 x I0)

Pole spacing
The pole spacing is the period in which the magnetic field (north/south) of the magnetic plate repeats itself.
