Uniquely small and easy to control
It is not only in the microdrive sector that small mini slider type actuators with motor and encoder are replacing
conventional pneumatic cylinders due to their identical design and simple motion control.
The miniature sizes are suitable for assembly fixtures, workpiece positioning, table movement and many other applications. They can transport horizontal payloads of up to 8 kg and vertical payloads of up to 3.5 kg with stroke travels of up to 300 mm.
In the RCP3 series, the mini slider types are optionally equipped with a sliding spindle or ball screw.
EC mini slider types with built-in controller
EleCylinder mini slider types feature not only a built-in motor and encoder but also built-in linear guides. They are only 20 or 30 mm wide and offer stroke lengths ranging from 25 to 300 mm. The built-in controller allows for a maximum of 2 or 3 preset positions.
The maximum speed is 300 mm/s with a maximum payload of 3 kg horizontally and 1.5 kg vertically. The ball screw ensures that the speed does not decrease even at the maximum stroke of 300 mm.
