Fast, Accurate Cantilever Actuator

Sept. 1, 2008
The ball screw-driven cantilever actuator EGSA is designed to reduce cycle times to the absolute minimum. 
The strengths of the EGSA are in its short strokes. It offers a repetition accuracy of +/-0.01mm. The EGSA is available as a complete solution with a motor and controller or as an individual component adapted to third-party motors. Motor mounting kits for axial or reverse parallel motor configurations are available options. Other design features include drive width of 50 or 60mm; stroke lengths of 100, 200 or 300mm; maximum working load of 6kg; and maximum speed of 1.5m/s.Festo Corp.www.festo.com/usa800.99.FESTO
