The Linmot linear actuators were originally conceived to replace air cylinders where more than two positions were needed. Rated speeds over 3 m/s and peak forces up to 585 N are available now, with a 1200 N model coming later this year.
Strokes from 50 to 1460 mm are available, with positional accuracy of ±0.05 mm, which can be upgraded to ±0.001 mm with the addition of an external position sensor.
Simple component selection and performance modelling is achieved with software with the flexibility to try different combinations. Results are shown on various power/time and thermals/time graphs. A cross-sectional sketch shows open and closed positions for mounting. A complex curve profile can be loaded straight into the program without the need to plot the individual curve points.
The actuators can be configured as single- or multi-axis, with easy integration into most system interfaces including the current ethernet protocols. Integral linear guides and brakes are also available.
With only one moving part, the IP67 stainless steel stator/slider assembly can operate in very harsh environments including steam, dust or machine coolants.
