If the speed is too high for the use of a screw-type actuator, consider a linear motor or a belt drive actuator. Load It is essential that the actuator be appropriately sized for the load.

Ball screw or belt drive? Let the application decide. Cost-effective actuators capable of precise linear motion are in growing demand by machine builders. Two of the more widely used actuator ...

It’s these mechanisms that [Nemo404] has taken a little further, freeing the lead screw and motor from the drive chassis and placing them in a 3D-printed enclosure for a complete linear actuator ...

Diakont introduces the DA99 electric linear roller screw actuators for applications requiring high performance and reliability. The new DA99 actuator model leverages Diakont’s proven roller screw ...

Linear drive systems have been used for thousands of years, as far back as the ancient Egyptians who used tree trunks to move heavy blocks of stones, providing the precursor to linear motion solutions ...

The unit's simplicity and ruggedness compared to ball-screw and belt-drive devices ensure millions of operating cycles. The actuator provides a 14- to 232-mm stroke, with a peak force of 92 N and ...

Pepper and his technical team began to review options for buying in a linear actuator to both support the mixing head and provide vertical drive. Silverson wanted a fully enclosed unit with smooth ...

Silverson put several units through extensive test programmes, carrying 20kg loads at 200mm/sec (double the specification) for 24 hours a day. The laboratory mixer requires capability for 4km of ...
