Thrust Actuators

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND POWER, LONG LIFE IN A COMPACT PACKAGE

GTX Series integrated motor / actuators offer up to 15X the life and 3X the power density of conventional ball screw electric actuators. Integrating their unique inverted roller screw and T-LAM brushless servo motor technologies delivers the programmability and precision of electric actuators combined with the high power density and rugged durability of hydraulics, all in a compact package that is similar in form factor to a hydraulic cylinder.

HYDRAULIC CYLINDER REPLACEMENT

Hydraulic cylinders provide long life and high force in a small package size. The FTX Series high force electric actuators were designed specifically to allow migration from traditional hydraulic actuation to electric. Based on planetary roller screw technology, the FTX offers life and force density not attainable with more common ball screw based electric actuators. With up to 15X the life and 2X the force density, the roller screw based FTX is the right choice when migrating from hydraulic to electric actuation.

HYDRAULIC CYLINDER REPLACEMENT

The FTP Series high force electric press actuators were designed to provide very high force in a small package making them an ideal alternative to hydraulic cylinders. Based on planetary roller screw technology, it offers force density not attainable with more common ball screw based electric actuators, up to 15X the life and 2X the force density in most cases.

INDUSTRY-LEADING ALL-IN-ONE ACTUATOR

Built on the unique GTX Series platform, the TTX Series actuators integrate a digital servo drive / controller, brushless servo motor and roller screw actuator in one compact, environmentally sealed package. Full system integration eliminates much the control cabinet and cabling headaches associated with typical centralized control architectures, speeding installation and lowering total cost of ownership. The TTX Series makes an ideal solution for machine retrofits and single axis applications.

Integrated Motor Actuator Offers High Performance and Long Life

GSX Series integrated motor actuators integrate all the advantages of Exlar® roller screw and T-LAM stator technologies to create powerful and robust solutions with long life. The specially designed roller screw mechanism efficiently converts electric motor power into linear motion. Planetary rollers, assembled around the extending rod, follow threads that are precisely machined on the inside of the actuator’s hollow rotor.

Robust Liberty MDrive (LMD) linear motion products integrate either a NEMA 17 or NEMA 23 stepper motor with external shaft linear actuator or captive shaft electric cylinder. Linear motion is produced by ACME screw/nut systems mounted to a motor’s driving shaft. Products include onboard drive electronics and controller with up to 8 I/O. Feedback options include open loop or closed loop with a 1000 line (4000 count/rev) internal incremental or multi-turn absolute encoder with hMT closed loop performance.

This high degree of integration can reduce machine complexity, size and cost in many stepper and servo motor applications. Liberty MDrive delivers exceptional performance and smoothness with advanced current control. Ideal for machine builders who want an optimized motor with onboard electronics.

The Parker ETH series is the next generation version of the well known, widely used ET Series. The ETH design offers unrivaled power density due to larger screw and bearing designs in smaller packages. The result is a product that offers increased force output from a given frame size or increased product life at the same force output.

Powerful Roller Screw Actuators Replace Hydraulics

The FT Series actuators from Exlar® use a planetary roller screw mounted inside an extruded aluminum housing. These electric linear actuators are compatible with a wide range of standard motors. Motor mounting and gearing configurations are available to meet the requirements of a wide variety of applications. The standard product is offered in four frame sizes with standard stroke lengths up to 48 inches (1219 mm) and a load rating up to 40,000 lbf (177 kN). Optional configurations allow you to extend the stroke up to 96 inches (2438 mm) for even greater reach.

Universal Design for Ultimate Flexibility

The K Series actuators from Exlar provide a truly universal solution for a multitude of rod-style actuator applications. Now available in 60, 75, and 90 mm frame sizes. Two grades of planetary roller screws give you flexibility to select the configuration that is best suited for your application and budget.
