Linear Rod Actuator

Rod actuators actuonix manufactures four different types of rod actuators.

Linear rod actuator.

A linear actuator uses one of a variety of mechanisms to produce motion in a straight line. A high speed linear actuator would also be rated by the amount of time required to complete its linear travel such as inches per second. The pq12 is available with end of stroke limit switches or with linear feedback along the full length of stroke. Choose from our selection of linear motion actuators including double acting round body air cylinders flexible mount air cylinders and more.

The pq12 series micro linear actuators are ideal for applications requiring precise positioning and compact size. This means that the device moves in only two directions. Force 200 lb stroke 5 60 inches from 229 99 usd from 229 99 usd buy now. These actuators cover a wide range of forces and speeds to meet your requirements and at very affordable prices.

The range of motion is called the stroke and can be measured in foot pounds of torque and inches of travel. A linear actuator is simply an actuator that moves in a linear or straight direction. Leadscrew screw jack ball screw and roller screw actuators all operate on the principle of the simple machine known as the screw. Heavy duty rod actuator ip66 rated dust and water resistant in stock.

Feedback rod linear actuators in stock. By rotating the actuator s nut the screw shaft moves in a line. For rod style actuation requiring lower amounts of force. Force 35 200 lb stroke 2 12 inches 139 99 usd 139 99 usd buy now.

The gsa linear slide actuator combines an electric rod actuator with guide rods mounting blocks and bearings. Conversion is commonly made via a few simple types of mechanism. Rsa ht heavy duty high force electric rod actuators. These electric linear actuators feature traditional rod extend retract type motion.

Moving a load in a straight line can be done using a variety of linear actuator devices employing both rod and rodless technologies. Rsa st electric linear rod actuators offer thrusts of up to 4038 lbf 40 257 n and can replace pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders with increased performance and longer life. While there are various ways to accomplish this the most common forms of linear actuators use a rod switch or slider that extends and retracts on a track. Mechanical linear actuators typically operate by conversion of rotary motion into linear motion.

An actuator is a mechanical device that moves.
