Electric Cylinders (or electro-mechanical cylinders) are captive linear actuators designed as a modular system. Due to lower maintenance costs, enhanced motion control, along with a large list of additional benefits, electric cylinders are rapidly replacing pneumatic cylinders in multiple industries.
Electric Cylinders (or electro-mechanical cylinders) are captive linear actuators designed like a modular system.
As a result of lower maintenance costs, enhanced motion control, as well as a long list of additional benefits, electric cylinders are rapidly replacing pneumatic cylinders in multiple industries. This extremely versatile linear motion product provides internal guiding and anti-rotation features ideal for z-axis and z-theta dual-axis designs. Another unique feature associated with an electric cylinder could be the tubular structure, which shields the leadscrew or ball screw from dust, dirt, as well as other environmental factors, letting it be employed in harsh conditions. Additional benefits include:
Accurate control over speed, position, and force
Smaller in dimensions
Easy synchronization of multiple axes
Increased efficiency vs. hydraulic systems
Beneficial to our environment (lowering of energy consumption, no using oil, or hazardous fire resistance fluids)
Suited to high-temperature and clean application environments
Longer product life
Easy installation
Smooth, quiet operation
Highly customizable
Engineers can configure electric cylinders which has a wide array of options, including different mount types like trunnion mounts, mounting feet, and ISO plates.
End effector customizations include imperial or metric threaded ends, clevis, or internal threads to mount other adaptors specific to your project. Electric Cylinders can be designed with lead screw drives to keep costs low, prevent back driving, and provide anti-backlash options. Or, ball screws drives could be incorporated when higher efficiency and load-speeds are needed.
Standard electric cylinder sizes accept NEMA 17 and 23 motors in double or single stack lengths. Optional encoders may also be added. Other positioning accessories include home position sensors, limit sensors, end of travel sensors, and linear potentiometers. When newer linear motion is needed, adding a servo motor will produce more consistent torque across a wide range of speeds. Smart motors are an alternative choice and supply a plug-and-play choice for an onboard drive and programmable controller. These numerous configuration options make electric cylinders unique and highly-customizable linear motion products.
Common ways to use electric cylinders are simply in both the packaging and food processing industries. Other applications include pick-and-place lab automation functions, semi-conductor/wafer processing, and in the farming and agricultural industries. We now have and interface of electric cylinder linear actuators provide quick, economical change-overs and broader functionality, making them a brilliant choice for a variety of linear motion systems.
