Electromechanical cylinders
04 July 2016
SKF is bringing electromechanical performance to new industries and users due to its Light ElectroMechanical Cylinder (LEMC) range of modular industrial actuators.

The new cylinders are based on a modular design, which increases the options available to the user while reducing both cost and manufacturing lead time. The units are available in two sizes – 21mm diameter screw for axial loads of up to 40kN, and 30mm diameter screw of axial loads of up to 80 kN – with stroke lengths of 100mm to 600mm (21mm screw) or 800mm (30mm screw). Depending on the chosen configuration, they can operate at linear speeds of up to 1000mm/s and accelerations of up to 12 m/s2.
