H2W Technologies has developed several high-torque rotary voice coil actuators, otherwise known as a limited angle torque motors or LATs. The model TWR-015-346-2RC was designed to allow for a low moving mass (68 g per coil) and inertia, as well as dual independent coils to allow for two independent motion profiles or couple the coils […]
Linear actuators: smarter, more powerful
Electromechanical actuators continue to evolve with more integration as well as more power, challenging some fluid power mainstays. Putting together a linear motion system has never been easier, considering the options available to designers along with powerful new tools with which to design such systems. The availability of more integrated components and so-called smart actuators […]

These complete plug-and-play systems ultimately provide OEM designers with technologies to meet demanding marketplace requirements, gain a competitive business […]
Tolomatic adds capacity to high-force electric actuator family
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 […]
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 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 […]
H2W develops highest force voice-coil actuator
H2W Technologies has developed what it says is the world’s highest force commercially available non-commutated DC linear actuator, otherwise known as a direct drive voice coil actuator. The model NCC08-75-3000-3X is capable of generating a continuous force of 300 lb (1,330 N) and a peak force of 900 lb (4,000 N) at a duty cycle […]
What are planetary roller screws?
Screw drives are some of the most common methods of mechanical linear actuation. And planetary roller screws are one of several screw types, including lead screws and ball screws. Planetary roller screws use threaded rollers that are toothed to mesh with geared rings at each end of a nut. The rollers spin on their axes […]
