•Low Price with Simple Structure Since model VLA uses an LM Guide as the direct base of the actuator unit and has fewer components, a simple structure, Lightweight and compact design are achieved. As a result, a low price actuator is realized. •Long-term Maintenance-free Operation Lightweight, compact type LM Guide model SRS*1, which provides a significantly high performance through adoption of ball cages, is used in the linear motion guide unit. In addition, the ball screw unit is attached with QZ Lubricator*2, which is capable of minimum and optimal lubrication. As a result, long-term maintenance-free...

•Example of the actuator's model number coding © Classification in main unit size © Ball screw lead •Model VLAST Specifications Note 1 : Both the rated speed and the maximum speed in the case of the 700mm stroke are 500mm/s for the high-speed type and 250mm/s for the medium- speed type. Note 2: The value applies when the actuator receives a load and operates at the rated speed and acceleration of 0.3G Note 3: The specifications apply to the actuator mounted with each size of a standard motor in page 14. If a different motor is used, the actuator's specifications are different. Also note that...

With shorter strokes, model CT55 can operate at up to 500mm/s for the medium-speed type or up to 1,000mm/s for the high-speed type. However, the service life may be shortened. Note 2: Model CT is capable of receiving only an axial load. The horizontal mass capacity is the...
