VCAR0087-0062-00A Voice Coil Motor 87N Peak Force 6.2mm Stroke High Speed

Product Overview

The VCAR0087-0062-00A is a high-speed cylindrical voice-coil motor in SUPT MOTION’s VCAR series that delivers a peak thrust of up to 87 N over a short stroke of just 6.2 mm. The combination of extremely high force density and an extremely short stroke makes this motor an excellent choice for high-speed operation, high-frequency response, and high-frequency reciprocating tasks, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring the rapid application of high force over short distances.

Because this voice coil motor employs a direct-drive voice coil principle, it can deliver the full 87 N of peak thrust from a standstill without the need for gears or lead screws, thereby eliminating the effects of backlash, compliance, or friction. Weighing only 45.2 g, the moving-coil assembly, combined with a powerful magnetic circuit, generates acceleration levels far exceeding those achievable by pneumatic cylinders or electromagnetic actuators, while maintaining precise thrust control throughout the entire motion.

With a stator diameter of 43.1 mm and a length of 34.9 mm, it features a robust and compact form factor that allows for easy integration into automated equipment. The motor features a brushless design, is maintenance-free and operates quietly, with a design life of millions of cycles. Each unit is manufactured under the ISO 9001 quality system, is CE certified, and undergoes comprehensive testing of force, stroke, and electrical characteristics prior to shipment.

The VCAR0087-0062-00A achieves high force density through a large-diameter magnetic circuit and optimized coil geometry, enabling it to replace pneumatic cylinders and solenoid actuators in many short-stroke applications while offering superior controllability. The 34.5 V rated voltage supports a compact driver design, while the low moving mass effectively suppresses mechanical shock and vibration even at high cycle frequencies. With its robust construction and optional sealed coil, this voice coil motor is suitable for both laboratory and production floor environments.

FAQ

Q1: Why choose a voice coil motor instead of a pneumatic cylinder for short-stroke high-speed motion?

A voice coil motor provides precise force and position control, no air supply requirement, no sticking, and much higher response rates and repeatability. It is also quieter and more energy-efficient than pneumatics.

Q2: What peak acceleration can the VCAR0087-0062-00A achieve?

With 87 N peak force and a 45.2 g mover, the no-load peak acceleration is extremely high. The achievable acceleration depends on the total moving mass and the driver current capability; our engineers can provide a detailed dynamic analysis including required driver voltage, current and acceleration profile for your exact load mass and motion cycle.

Q3: Can this motor be used for continuous high-frequency cycling?

Yes, within the continuous force rating of 21.67 N at 25 ℃. For extended high-frequency duty, we recommend monitoring coil temperature and can supply models with higher continuous ratings or cooling options.

Q4: What drive voltage and current are needed?

The rated voltage is 34.5 V. The driver should supply sufficient peak current to produce the required force; we will provide the exact motor constant and resistance values for driver sizing.

Q5: Do you offer custom force or stroke versions?

Yes, the VCAR series spans peak forces from 0.7 N to 1351 N and strokes up to 63 mm. Custom versions with modified force, stroke, cabling and mounting are available on request.
