MINIATURE LINEAR ACTUATOR
Smooth. Accurate. Repeatable. Compact Series boasts a low profile—23 mm—standard system height providing reliable linear motion in tight spaces. With a maximum length of 510 mm and 300 series stainless steel with PTFE coating, this system is able to adjust to many different applications with various configurable options for the system including:
Versatile. Flexible. Affordable. Based on the patent pending SIMO® process, the new SIMO Series Linear Platform is built on either a low profile or tall base rail with configurable bearing and drive options that can be tailored to exceed performance requirements.
• High speed precision, enhanced load capacities & precise repeatability
• Compact profile 28 x 32 mm
• Bearing options: Plain bearing or ball bearing • Constant Force™ Technology nuts or standard fixed nuts • Motor options: Integrated motor or motor mount setup
