Type A Design: Industrial electric actuator with a RACO Motor A wide range of applications

M

RACO electric actuator cover a broad range of applications. Our modular systemof subassemblies includes five basicdesign types with eleven sizes for per- formance ranging from 0.3 kN (70 lbs.) to 600 kN (135,000 lbs.) of thrust. Our stan-dard linear speeds range from 5 mm/persecond (0.2”) to 750 mm/per second (30”) and standard strokes span from 100 mm (3.9”) to 2000 mm (78.8”). Thanks to theirtechnical specifications, RACO’s electricactuators can be applied in a wide variety of applications from precision positioning to heavy load movement. A variable system The five basic design types of RACOelectric actuator represent a variety of application options for the design of actuators. For the application, specificmotor gearbox combinations will beselected. For example; the RACO motor units will provide high starting torque with a higher breakaway force and a soft RPMtorque characteristic for smooth massacceleration, or standard 3 phase squirrel cage induction motors, DC, stepper and servo motors will be utilized as required.This means that RACO’s electric actuatorsare equipped right out of the box for your exact need. Small, but strong: RACO COMPACT
Type M Design: Electric Actuator with a RACO parallel Gear motor manufacturer Our compact actuators are known fortheir small size and high actuation forces.Just like its big brother the MA, the compact electric actuator functions purely electric mechanically while providing along service free life. Its space saving,cost effective construction makes the RACO Compact ideal for its use in tight quarters. It can be applied for forcesranging between 2 kN (450 lbs.) to 40 kN(9,000 lbs.)

Type N Design: Electric Actuator with a RACO parallel Gear Motor and C Drive Housing The intelligent drive strategy Wherever loads have to be positioned fastand accurately, RACO’s electric actuatorstand the test of time as extremely durable and reliable units. They consist of very economical components. The coreof all electric actuator is the high-precisionACME or ball screw from our own manufacturing facility. The RACO spindle deployed in the actuator is the component that lets you utilize the optimal benefits of electro-mechanical actuation devices. In contrast to pneumatic or hydraulicsystems, the RACO spindle does not use any power to maintain position. No powerconversion is required. There are noproblems with fluid losses or with freezing as in other types of actuators. That clearly minimizes service expense,making electric actuator your best choice,economically and ecologically.
