SPECIAL ELECTRIC LINEAR ACTUATORS

The EMA and Rolaram electric linear actuators have been successfully applied in many varied “special” applications, requiring for example:

• Very high linear speed (over 50 metres/minute) or acceleration (over 3 metres/sec2).
• Very slow speeds such as 30mm/min.
• Very high dynamic load (over 1000kN).
• In-line drive configuration.
• Increased accuracy units.
• Special drive e.g inverter, servo, DC, stepper.
• Temperature extremes or hazardous environment (e.g. subsea, defence).
• Built in feedback devices such as encoders, clutch monitors and load cells.
• Special mounting features such as flange mounting plates, domed end fittings, ram clamping brackets, base plates, etc.
• Designs incorporating special devices such as spring return mechanism, spring dampers, torque limiters, etc.
• Reduced overall size for restricted space applications.
• Very low noise (under 60dB).
• Special paint requirements e.g. high performance epoxy paint for outdoor use.
• Special materials e.g. stainless steel variants.
• Industries which use special actuators include: automotive, construction, defence, medical, oil & gas, machine tools, nuclear, water.

Where a modification of our existing range is not practical we have the facilities to design and manufacture electric linear actuators tailored specifically to your requirements.
