Why Choose Our Electric Linear Actuators Over Pneumatic Systems?
Replacing pneumatic systems with our MMB Electric Linear Actuators offers significant benefits. Pneumatic systems rely on compressed air, which is not only energy-intensive but also prone to leaks and inefficiencies. Our electric actuators, powered directly by electricity, deliver precise linear motion with less energy consumption and maintenance. Unlike pneumatic cylinders, which experience wear due to continuous contact and friction, our actuators leverage slide bearings, reducing friction and enhancing the durability of the system. With smoother operation and reduced downtime, businesses can see cost savings in both energy and upkeep.
Advantages of Electric Linear Actuators
- Energy Efficiency: With no need for compressed air, energy consumption is significantly lower compared to pneumatic systems.
- High Force Output: Our actuators can deliver peak forces of up to 605 N, allowing them to handle demanding applications with ease.
- Compact Design: The MMB series features a compact footprint, with stroke lengths up to 35 mm, making them adaptable to tight spaces.
- Low Maintenance: Fewer moving parts and no need for lubrication make these actuators highly reliable and maintenance-friendly.
- Precision Control: The direct-drive design allows for precise positioning and fast response times, improving performance in automated processes.
- Quiet and Clean Operation: Without the noise and air leaks typical of pneumatic systems, our electric actuators ensure a quieter and cleaner workspace.
Our MMB Electric Linear Actuators represent the future of automation, offering a superior alternative to traditional pneumatic cylinders by combining speed, precision, and energy efficiency in one robust package.
About Moving Magnet Actuator Technology
The core of our Electric Linear Actuators lies in Moving Magnet Actuator (MMA) technology, which enables direct control over linear motion without converting rotary to linear force. This technology involves moving a magnet through a stator to generate linear motion, reducing mechanical complexity and ensuring smooth, fast, and precise movements. With Moving Magnet Actuators, there are fewer moving parts, which translates to less friction, minimal wear, and superior long-term reliability. Moreover, the actuators are highly responsive, ideal for applications requiring consistent high-speed movements with minimal lag.
MMB Motor Controller
The MMB series of Electrical Linear Actuators is designed to work seamlessly with our dedicated motor controller, enabling sensorless position control without the need for an external encoder. This innovative controller simplifies the setup, requiring only two wires for power and position control, making it exceptionally efficient. Compact and powerful, this controller can drive Moving Magnet VCAs of up to 1 kW, all within a matchbox-sized package.
Also available: MMA Actuator (Without Slide Bearings)
For customers looking for greater flexibility, we also offer the MMA version, which comes without a slide bearing (frameless). This configuration is perfect for industries that prefer to integrate their own guiding systems to meet specific requirements while still benefiting from the advantages of moving magnet actuator technology.
The MMA series is built for more demanding industrial tasks, typically featuring a greater moving mass that reflects its robust design. Both series provide similar dimensions and stroke lengths, yet the MMA series has higher force capabilities. This makes the MMA the superior choice for applications requiring significant power and load handling.
