The actuator features recirculating ball bearing guides that helps absorb lateral forces and torques. With a toothed belt or ball screw drive and two parallel guides, the unit is suitable for cantilevered systems. The toothed belt model offers flexible motor connections on all four sides, making it possible to change motor configuration at any time. The OEM can define a standard motor attachment with a single part number and modify that to an alternate position as needed to suit machine and customer needs. The actuator offers a multi axis and modular positioning system and standardized interfaces for all drives and motor packages. Free software simplifies the selection process and eliminates costly oversizing. Specially developed profiles with optimized cross section give the unit maximum rigidity and load capacity. Maximum stroke is 2400 to 5000 mm, maximum speed is 1.5 to 5 m/s, and maximum feed force is 1300-1800 N.
