NEMA 6 linear actuator offers precision for tight spaces
With the LSA14, Nanotec introduces its first linear actuator with 14-mm flange (NEMA 6). As one of the smallest linear actuators with stepper motor on the market, this compact unit is suitable for applications with space restrictions, such as medical or analytical instruments, or lab automation and optical applications. This external actuator has a resolution […]
Linear actuator features integrated controller
With the PSA56, Nanotec launches its first linear actuator with integrated controller. This extremely compact drive unit combines the LSA56 hybrid linear actuator and the intelligent controllers of Nanotec’s PD4-E series. The integrated magnetic single-turn absolute encoder has a resolution of 1,024 CPR and supports field-oriented control via CANopen. The screw’s protective coating is made […]
Miniature voice coil servo motor features high force-to-size ratio, 1-micron resolution
Moticont’s new miniature GVCM-016-019-01M linear voice coil servo motor is smaller in diameter than a U.S. dime. This 15.9 mm (0.625 in.) diameter servo motor, also called an electric cylinder, features a high force-to-size ratio of 1.5 N (5.3 oz) continuous force and 4.6 N (16.6 oz) of peak force. The compact housing is just […]
New size 17 hybrid linear actuator features enhanced performance
AMETEK Haydon Kerk Pittman, a business unit of AMETEK, announces the availability of its new 43000 Max Series Size 17 single- and double-stack hybrid linear actuators. Based on the company’s best-selling compact hybrid 43000 motor, the Max Series Size 17 delivers up to a 30% performance enhancement over its predecessor when used with almost all […]
Programmable linear actuator features stroke to 100 mm
The new LDL Programmable Electric Linear Actuator from SMAC Moving Coil Actuators has been designed as a cost-competitive alternative to pneumatics. A common trend in industrial automation is that engineers are looking for electric alternatives to pneumatic components for a number of reasons, including increased control, improved cycle life, and reduced operating cost. The LDL […]
New frame size added to Curtiss-Wright integrated motor/actuator series
Curtiss-Wright’s Actuation Division has added a third frame size, the Exlar GTX060, to its GTX integrated motor/actuator series of industrial electromechanical actuators. The GTX Series actuators offer force, precision, and repeatability while eliminating or minimizing the maintenance and inefficiencies typical of fluid power alternatives. With continuous force ratings up to 2,668 N (600 lbf) and […]
New direct-drive linear modules from PI
PI’s two new series of direct-drive linear modules are geared for machine builders and system integrators. The V-855 and V-857 product families were designed for high-load and high duty cycle industrial precision motion applications where traditional actuators or linear slides with lead-screw or timing-belt drives are not precise, robust or reliable enough. The maintenance-free and […]
New linear actuator offered as alternative to pneumatic actuation
The new LDL25 Series Linear Actuator from SMAC has been designed as a cost-competitive alternative to pneumatics. A common trend in industrial automation is that users are looking for electric alternatives to their pneumatic components for a number of reasons: control, cycle life, operating cost and environment, among others. The LDL series actuator features several […]
