Single-axis actuators

    Oct. 25, 2007
    Single-axis actuators come in 208 configurations and work with most servomotors.

    Each is ball-screw driven and built on an extruded 6063-T6 aluminum base with black-anodized finish and 1045-steel side supports. C10 ball-screw diameters range from 12 to 20 mm and leads can be from 4 to 20 mm. This lets machine builders tailor actuators to the application.
