Motor/Actuator Lowers Costs

Dec. 1, 2009
The integrated-motor actuator (IMA) combines a servo motor with the vendor’s proven, rod-style actuator to provide a compact package. 
Compared to traditional rod-style actuators, the IMA’s integrated design provides higher dynamic performance by eliminating the need for separate motors, couplers, motor mounts, gearing and belts, says the vendor. The result is reduced component costs, assembly time and failure points.The IMA provides high force (up to 2000lbf) along with high speed (23 in./sec.) and positional accuracy (+/-0.00984-in. or +/-0.25mm). The IMA can be ordered in any incremental stroke length from 6 to 18 inches. Tolomatic Inc.www.tolomatic.com800.328.2174
