Compact linear actuator
November 1st 2008 Schaeffler Group's INA Linear
Technology Division has launched
a range of modular linear actuator
units suitable for both single and
multi-axis compact linear actuator
systems. The MKUVS32-KGT is a
compact linear actuator suitable for
a wide range of applications where
secure, rapid, precise and
repeatable positioning and
movement of light-to-moderate
loads is required.
It consists of a support rail, one
or two carriages and a high
precision ball screw drive.
Guidance of the carriage or
carriages in the support rail is
achieved using two or four KUVS32
linear recirculating ball bearing
units (depending on the carriage
length). Due to their support width,
the actuators can withstand forces
from all directions. The combination
of support rail, linear recirculating
ball bearing units and carriages
provides a stable, rigid guidance
system characterised by precision
and high load carrying capacity. More articles from Schaeffler (UK) Ltd: |
