Movac - a range of linear ball-screw and belt driven actuators. Movacs® are a range of modular cylinders that combine the functions of guidance and positioning in one neat package. Inside the anodised aluminium cylinder there is either a belt or screw drive which is connected to a carriage to provide a controllable thrust. A compatible range of accessories allows multi-axis systems to be built quickly and economically. Why use a Movac® ? The Movac® contains all the mechanical elements of a guidance and positioning system. Instead of designing and sourcing a drive, bearings, protection and devising a means of transferring the power from the drive to the load everything is available in one tried and tested package. A complementary range of accessories allows system designers to obtain all components from a single source. Where are Movacs® used ? Although Movacs® are used in wide variety of applications across a broad range of industries their use is generally characterised by one of the following.
Where a
fast, controllable feed is required
Where
exact positioning and repeatability are needed
Where two
or three axes of movement is required |
