MODULAR LINEAR ACTUATORS INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Nook Modular Linear Actuators are flexible positioning systems made of self-supporting and wear resistant aluminum profiles. Modular linear actuators can be used as a single axis solution or assembled for a multitude of gantry XY and XYZ positioning duties including inspection, pick-and-place, assembly or dispensing applications. also be used for symmetrical adjustment of two or more linear units running parallel. Belts can be supplied for clean room and explosion proof environments. A modular actuator can be driven by either an internal or external...

Modular Linear Actuator-6

MODULAR LINEAR ACTUATORS SCREW DRIVEN V-GROOVE GUIDED Size 40 without T-slots Dimensions (mm) Function: This unit consists of an aluminium square profile with lateral V-guides. The carriage, which is driven by means of a trapezoidal/ballscrew threaded screw with lead screw, moves along the unit guided by V-slides that are adjustable free of play. Where two linear units are used in parallel or where two carriages are mounted on one unit, the leading-nut receiver can be used to adjust the symmetry of the carriages. The linear opening of the unit is sealed with a stainless steel cover band to make...

EXTERNAL ROLLER BEARING GUIDED This linear unit consists of an aluminium hollow section with integral, parallel ground and hardened steel guide rods. The carriage has play-adjustable ball-bearing rollers which engage with the guide rods. The rotating trapezoidal/ballscrew causes linear motion of the ballnut, which is connected to the carriage.The slot necessary for this is covered by a stainless steel strip, making the unit dust-and splash-proof. Lateral adjustment of movement for parallel units, or when two carriages are mounted on one unit, is provided by the ballnut mounting. Fitting position:...
