Multi-Motion Actuators

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the specifications and features of the PHD Series 1000-8000 Multi-Motion Actuators, which provide both linear and rotary motion from a single output shaft. These actuators are suitable for applications such as part transfer, positioning, and orientation.
Key Features:
  • Threaded mounting holes for versatile installation.
  • Heavy-duty spline bar for transmitting rotary and linear motion.
  • Shear coupling to prevent damage if maximum torque is exceeded.
  • Built-in angle adjustments and port controls for precise control.
  • Sealed ball bearings for stability under heavy loads.
  • High-strength alloy steel racks and pinions for durability.
  • Hardcoated aluminum body with PTFE for wear resistance.
  • Available with double rack configurations for increased torque.
Specifications:
  • Pneumatic operating pressure: 20 to 150 psi [1.4 to 10 bar].
  • Hydraulic operating pressure: 40 to 1500 psi [2.8 to 103 bar].
  • Operating temperature: -20°F to 180°F [-29°C to 82°C].
  • Rotational tolerance: Nominal rotation +10°/-0°.
  • Stroke tolerance: ±0.031 inches [±0.8 mm].
  • Rotational backlash varies by series.
  • Factory lubricated for rated life and field repairable.
Industry Applications:
  • Part positioning and transfer.
  • Pick and place applications.
  • Testing procedures in pharmaceuticals.
  • Part load/unload or transfer.
Ordering Information: To order, specify type, design number, mounting style, series, angle of rotation, stroke, rod end style, cushions/shock pads, and options. Standard angles of rotation include 45°, 90°, 180°, 270°, 360°, and 450°.
Options and Accessories:
  • Magnetic pistons for Hall Effect or Reed Switch.
  • Fluoro-Elastomer seals and close tolerance stroke & rotation.
  • Electroless nickel plate for all ferrous parts.
  • Various rod end styles and port positions available.
Engineering Data: The document includes detailed engineering data such as torque output, thrust force, and displacement for each series. It also provides hydraulic pressure ratings for different options.
Working Principle: The actuator consists of a cylinder and a rack-and-pinion type rotary actuator. Linear motion is produced when specific ports are pressurized, causing the pinion gear and spline bar to rotate the coupled piston.
Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided for both imperial and metric units, including reference marks for orientation and standard rod ends with wrench flats.
Procedures: Instructions are given for maintaining pressure and ensuring the system remains purged. The document also outlines the use of PHD Port Control® for speed control, which includes an adjustable needle and a separate ball check for controlling actuator speed.
Standards and Norms: All dimensions are reference only unless specifically toleranced. The document specifies standard rod ends with four wrench flats and provides details on port positions and optional port positions.
Recommendations: Adjustable cushions are recommended for smooth deceleration at the end of stroke and rotation to eliminate mechanical shock. Shock pads made of polyurethane are suggested for reducing shock and noise, allowing higher piston velocities and shorter cycle times.
Key Data from Tables: The tables provide dimensions for various components of the actuators, including rotary and linear sections, with specific measurements for each series. The tables also include details on port and needle locations, and the effective cushioning length for different series.
Reed Switches and Set Point Module: The document provides specifications for various reed switches and set point modules. Reed switches are available in different configurations, including sink or source type with voltage ratings of 4.5-24 VDC and AC types with 110-120 VAC. Set point modules are also available in sink and source type outputs.
Compact Reed and Hall Effect Switches: Compact reed switches are offered with both sink/source type and AC type configurations. Hall effect switches are available in NPN and PNP types, with quick connect options.
Angle Adjustment and Port Positions: The document details the angle adjustment feature for series 2000-8000, allowing for rotation adjustments up to 30°. Port positions for linear and rotary sections are specified, with options for multi-position actuators.
Material and Seal Options: Fluoro-elastomer seals are available for compatibility with certain fluids, and electroless nickel plating is offered for protection in severe environments. Close tolerance stroke options are available for precise rotation and stroke requirements.
Dimensional Specifications: Detailed dimensional specifications are provided for various series, including rod end options and thread dimensions. The document includes metric conversions for all measurements.
Additional Options: Options for multi-position and multi-motion actuators are discussed, with specific details on port positioning and keyway configurations.
