MXB Belt Drive Actuator Catalog

Product catalog summary
Overview
The MXB Rodless Belt Drive Actuators by Tolomatic are engineered for high performance in demanding industrial applications. They come in two configurations: MXB-U (Unguided) and MXB-P (Profiled Rail), known for their low profile, precision, and durability.

Key Features
  • MXB-U: Compact linear belt solution for applications with existing guides, supporting speeds up to 200 in/sec and thrusts up to 418 lbf.
  • MXB-P: Suitable for moderate to heavy loads with a profiled rail system, supporting speeds up to 150 in/sec and thrusts up to 418 lbf.

Specifications
  • Maximum Velocity: MXB-U up to 200 in/sec, MXB-P up to 150 in/sec.
  • Maximum Acceleration: 1200 in/sec².
  • Repeatability: ±0.002 in.
  • Temperature Range: 10 to 130 °F.

Applications
  • Used in workcenter positioning, assembly, milling, high-speed flying cut-off, X-Y multi-axis systems, and more.

Advantages of Belt Solutions
  • High linear velocities and acceleration rates.
  • Long stroke lengths and excellent repeatability.
  • High duty cycles and low profile design.

Construction and Materials
  • Polyurethane belt reinforced with steel tension members, featuring an HTD synchronous belt for even load distribution.

Options and Accessories
  • Motor or gearbox options, mounting plates, tube clamps, and various sensing switches.

Conclusion
The MXB Rodless Belt Drive Actuators offer versatility and robustness for a wide range of industrial applications.
Specifications and Ordering Information
