The
MXL Series linear actuator features a design utilizing a lead screw drive for movement. The body is constructed from an anodized aluminum profile and is corrosion resistant; allowing this unit to operate in severe environments. The linear actuator’s outer surfaces are precision extruded, providing for flush mounting on both sides and the base to facilitate a qualified, clean and easy installation. T-slots along its full length on both sides allow for the unit to be mounted in numerous orientations with ease and for ancillary items; such as sensors, to be mounted directly to its body.
Linear motion is provided by a lead screw drive. A lead screw provides for high force capacity at moderate speeds while maintaining accurate positioning. Smooth running, quiet and vibration free movement are other benefits when using lead screw drive systems.
Linear guidance is through cam roller bearings integrated on the carriage which run on hardened and ground profile rails. The profile rail and bearing design provide high rigidity, accuracy and speed with low friction, noise and vibration for the carriage.
The MXL linear actuator excels in harsh environments of several different industries. Food and Beverage, vertical conveyance, pick and place, packaging, automotive, and medical are all examples where the MXL actuator has a proven track record.
