Bose® ElectroForce® Linear Motion Systems
for OEM Applications
If you have a challenging motion control requirement for your high-volume OEM application, consider a partnership with Bose to create a customized embedded solution for your new product. There are a number of important considerations when developing the appropriate solution for your linear motion requirements, so contact Bose for a technical consultation about your challenge. We can help you determine if an ElectroForce® moving magnet motor and Bose® controls package might be the answer to your OEM application.
The ElectroForce Moving Magnet Motor
The ElectroForce linear motor enables a revolutionary alternative to traditional motion and force control because of its simple, durable, moving-magnet design. The proprietary motor uses a friction-free, flexure suspension for exceptional fidelity and precision. As a result, ElectroForce linear motion systems have set a new standard for performance and simplicity in a variety of control applications.
The Right Fit
ElectroForce linear motion systems excel in applications where:
- Controlled force is essential;
- High frequency, bandwidth and velocity performance is critical;
- Near-instantaneous, precise and variable-speed motion is required;
- System durability and reliability is paramount;
- Silence or a low noise level is desirable;
- Simple installation and set-up is valued;
- Contamination risk must be minimized.
If your organization has a challenging application that requires these attributes, and your eventual product will be of significant volume, consider tapping into the depth of Bose systems engineering. We can develop a customized motion control OEM package specifically for your new product application.
The History
Throughout the company's history, Bose has operated as an engineering solutions company with an enduring commitment to research. This has led Bose to develop deep areas of expertise in key technical disciplines, namely power electronics, controls and linear electromagnetic actuators.
The ElectroForce moving-magnet linear motor was developed for an experimental loudspeaker, and Bose patented that linear motor, recognizing its potential in non-audio applications. The linear motor has been successfully deployed in several applications, including biomedical device testing, component testing and a variety of materials testing applications setting a new standard of performance.
