What is the speed and precision that Tongmao voice coil motors can achieve?Jan 02, 2026

For voice coil motors, some customers have a thorough understanding and can choose the type independently. Some clients are not very familiar with it and need assistance in assessment. But whether familiar or not, the goal is only one: that is to select voice coil motor products with high cost performance and that meet the needs.

When choosing voice coil motors, speed is one of the important evaluation parameters. Many customers come up and ask how fast your voice coil motors can go? Here, the editor would like to explain it to everyone.

Regarding the question of how fast a voice coil motor can achieve, in fact, the speed of a voice coil motor is closely related to other parameters, such as your load, your stroke, and your installation method, etc. The heavier the load, the slower the speed will naturally be. Similarly, the longer the stroke, the slower the speed will also be. Therefore, there is no definite answer to whether the speed can be achieved. Based on the speed parameter requirements you provided, we can only calculate in reverse whether they can be met.

In addition, customers are also concerned about the precision of voice coil motors. In fact, motors do not have precision parameter indicators, only modules do. Regarding the question of how high the precision of voice coil motor modules can be, precision is divided into two types: repeat positioning accuracy and positioning accuracy. And precision is related to the resolution of the encoder and mechanical system errors, such as the guiding system, transmission system, structural rigidity, etc. That is to say, we can choose a high-resolution encoder, a highly stable guide rail, etc. based on your precision requirements. There is no exact value, only a broad reference value. The repeat positioning accuracy can reach a few tenths of a micrometer, and the positioning accuracy is within a few micrometers.

When it comes to the force calculation of voice coil motors, many customers simply calculate the force in mg when choosing a voice coil motor. In fact, whether the force of a voice coil motor is appropriate or not is not so simple to calculate. It is related to the installation method, whether there is friction, and the weight of the motor coil itself, etc.

Kunshan Tongmao Electronics Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in the research and development, manufacturing and sales of voice coil motors for over a decade. Welcome to pay more attention.
