New linear actuator offered as alternative to pneumatic actuation

By Miles Budimir | March 19, 2021

Share

The new LDL25 Series Linear Actuator from SMAC has been designed as a cost-competitive alternative to pneumatics. A common trend in industrial automation is that users are looking for electric alternatives to their pneumatic components for a number of reasons: control, cycle life, operating cost and environment, among others. The LDL series actuator features several innovative cost reduction elements that result in a list price starting at $300 US.

Features include:

  • Dimensions: 180 x 63.5 x 25.4 mm
  • Stroke: 50 mm (10, 25 and 100 mm will be added)
  • Peak Force: 30 N (48 Vdc)
  • Encoder Resolution: 5 µm standard, 1 µm optional
  • Long life cycle tested to 500 million cycles
  • Fully programmable in force, position and velocity
  • SMAC’s Patented ‘Soft-Land’ technology
  • Built-in controller type available
