The Tolomatic RSX080 actuator, the latest addition to the Tolomatic family of high-force electric actuators, is an economical actuator solution with forces up to 18,000 lbf (80 kN) ideal for replacing hydraulic cylinders. Designed and tested for 100% duty cycle, the RSX080 actuator is roller-screw driven for long, consistent life in demanding environments. Applications include […]
New high force voice coil motors from Moticont
Moticont has added a new, higher continuous force, higher peak force linear voice coil motor to its series of 2.750 in. (69.9 mm) diameter x 3.50 in. (88.9 mm) long (housing) voice coil motors. The LVCM-070-089-03 linear voice coil motor features 40.86 lb (181.5 N) continuous force and 129.1 lb (573.4 N) peak force. This […]
New wireless RF remote control for actuators from Accu Tech USA
Accu Tech USA has released a new wireless key fob controller for their linear actuator product line. The plug-and-play radio frequency (RF) remote control kit includes a 2-button remote control and a remote receiver to efficiently convert a standard rod-style actuator to an actuator automated by remote control. This system is small in size and […]
Hollow rotary actuators from Intellidrives simplify equipment design
The RTGA hollow shaft rotary actuators from Intellidrives feature a large diameter hollow hole (through-hole) that helps reduce the complexity of wiring and piping, simplifying equipment design. Hollow shaft diameters vary from 28 mm to 100 mm depending on the frame size of the actuator. Equipment tables and arms can be installed directly on the […]
New sensors from SIKO aimed at Industry 4.0 for drives, handling systems and robotics
The ultra compact LEC100 and LEC200 sensor duo from SIKO has been developed to meet the requirements of Industry 4.0. The sensor head of the LEC range is small and compact measuring 40 x 10 x 10 mm. The height of the sensors has been reduced by more than half compared to prior models. The […]
Closed-loop linear actuator operates at high torque for high acceleration applications
A new closed-loop linear actuator from Applied Motion Products offers greater acceleration rates, shorter move times and higher throughput than conventional step motor-based linear actuators. Creating peak torques up to 50% higher than holding torque, TBSM11 Linear Actuators accelerate and decelerate faster, making them ideal for high throughput processes that require linear actuators to start […]
“New Design” pillow and flange blocks from LM76 allow for easy bearing lubrication
“New Design” pillow blocks and flange blocks from LM76 feature a lubrication fitting and an alignment set screw in the pillow blocks and flange blocks. The stainless steel and self aligning linear bearings are modified by having an alignment flat ground on the bearings’ outer shell and drilling a hole through the outer shell. Lubricants […]
Motion Trends: 3D printing aides lead screw design, prototyping
A number of trends in the motion industry are impacting lead screw design and implementation. One of these is the miniaturization of components. For instance, applications in optics as well as medical devices demand high precision, and smaller miniature lead screws can meet high precision specifications and can fit where space is limited and where […]
Motion Trends: Better performing, more customized ball screws
Slow but steady improvements continue with ball screw technology. For instance, developments in manufacturing and materials have improved ball screw performance so that the most recent generation of ball screws have greater load densities than before, leading to high load capacities in smaller packages. A trend that continues is the adoption of ball screws into […]
New integrated motor/actuator series from Curtiss-Wright
Curtiss-Wright’s Sensors & Controls Division recently announced the release of the Exlar GTX080 next-generation integrated motor/actuator. The GTX080’s latest design offers substantial performance improvements over its predecessor. Incorporating Curtiss-Wright’s patented inverted roller screw technology, the GTX080’s high power density and compact form factor make it an ideal replacement for hydraulic cylinders. The GTX Series actuators […]
