Haydon Switch & Instrument, Inc. has announced the
newest addition to the company's family of linear actuators: the size 14 hybrid
linear actuators are now available with a 0.9 degree step angle. Like the 1.8
degree version, this actuator is available in all four designs: captive,
non-captive, external linear, and linear rotary. Combined with a stainless steel
lead screw, the linear actuator delivers an extremely smooth, precise motion,
the company said.
Haydon's linear actuators are designed for applications that require long life, reliability, precise positioning and rapid motion. This new step angle is designed for higher resolution and allows for a full step linear movement of 1.6 microns.
The complete size 14 product line has resolutions ranging from 0.00006" (0.001524 mm) to 0.0025" (0.0635 mm) per step, with operational thrust capabilities of up to 50 pounds. Like all of Haydon's linear actuators, these models can also be micro stepped for even finer resolution. These high-resolution hybrid linear actuators have been specially engineered to deliver high speed, force and endurance. They feature a production-proven, patent pending rotor drive nut that delivers trouble-free, long-term performance, said Haydon.
"These compact units provide a cost effective solution for engineers requiring positional accuracy and high speed linear travel for their project," said a company spokesperson. "In addition to standard configurations, Haydon can custom design this motor to meet your specific application requirements."
