Precision Linear Actuators www.danahermotion.com Introduction Product Introduction Danaher Motion offers two high performance precision linear actuator series - the black EC series in four sizes and the aluminum-colored ECT series in two sizes. Both series are ideal for positioning loads that are either externallyguided and supported, or pivoting. They are also ideal where there is a high concentration of airborne contaminants, as rodless actuators are inherently less well protected. Strong, fast and accurate The hallmark for the entire range of precision linear actuators is the ability to work hard, fast and accurately, day in and day out, under the toughest conditions. Hydraulics and pneumatics replacement Precision linear actuators are direct descendants of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. Possessing many of the same unique design characteristics that made hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders popular, actuators benefit from cleaner, simpler and more energy-efficient power transmission. They are also much easier to integrate with modern programmable controls, have greater accuracy and are less noisy. Harsh environments Chemical plants, paper mills, welding operations and outdoor applications are all suitable for precision linear actuators. IP65 protection as standard or as option, a robust design and the use of high-quality components makes them suitable for almost every location. Minimum maintenance All precision linear actuators are designed to require a minimum of maintenance. There are no parts that need to be replaced due to wear. Regular lubrication is needed only in applications where the actuator works hard and frequently. Customized units Customization is one of our strengths and we have built hundreds of customized units. If you need a special stroke, a unique mounting bracket, or some other adaptation of the standard product, our engineers will help you find the perfect solution for your application. Please contact customer service for more information. Precision linear actuators can successfully be used in handling, machining and manufacturing applications. Another suitable area is in the replacement of hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders where they bring many benefits compared to these traditional technologies. The broad range of options and accessories and our long experience in building customized units makes it easy to find the perfect actuator for almost any application.
