Products

MXP-N Internal Bearing Compact Air Cylinders

MXP-N internal bearing compact air cylinder offers a space-saving design over typical rod type air cylinders.

RSA-HT Heavy Duty, High Force Electric Rod Actuators

High force, heavy duty electric rod actuators ideal for mounting large motors. Replace hydraulic cylinders with the RSA-HT with a roller screw option in challenging environments. Forces up to 13,000 lbf (58.0 kN).

GSA Linear Slide Actuators

Design that combines an electric rod actuator with guide rods, mounting blocks, and bearings. Ideal for applications requiring guidance and support of the load. Forces up to 950 lbf (4.2 kN).

IMA Linear Servo Actuators

Electric rod actuator integrated with a servo motor in a single, compact design that integrates with 3rd party drives and accessories. Forces up to 6,900 lbf (30.6 kN).

MXB-P Heavy Duty Linear Actuator

Linear actuator that uses a profiled rail bearing and belt drive train to move heavy loads at high speeds. Loads up to 1,290 lbs (586 kg).

MXB-U Unguided Belt Driven Actuators

Belt driven actuator is designed for applications where loads are externally guided and supported and high speeds are required. Forces up to 420 lbf (1.9 kN).

B3W Linear Belt-Drive Actuators

B3W linear belt drive actuators have an enclosed ball bearing design for heavy loads, high bending moments, and long service life.
