Linear actuators are made up of an electric motor, a lead screw and a nut or carriage. By converting rotational motion into precise linear movement, linear actuators allow you to move or position loads along a straight path. They provide a safer, cleaner alternative to hydraulic systems.
At R. A. Rodriguez (UK) Limited, we supply a comprehensive range of electric linear actuators from our trusted partners, Grob and Thomson.
The MINI range of electric motor-driven linear actuators consists of 5 basic sizes with body diameters ranging from 60 to 140 mm. A choice of 3 phase, single phase AC or 24 V DC drive motors are available. The electric linear actuators, except for size Mini 3, are completely manufactured in stainless steel. A large number of additional features, such as IP65 rating, ATEX 95 explosion proof, brake and encoder, are available. Stroke lengths range from 100 to 800 mm, with stroke speeds of between 0.5 to 181 mm/s and a stroke force of up to 26,000 N. Customised stroke lengths available on request.
Thomson electric linear actuators have been used in heavy machinery, material handling, medical devices and factory automation for over 50 years. Offering long-life, heavy-duty performance, these linear actuators are built from high-quality components. The 24v and 12v linear actuators do not leak fluids and can be easily integrated into existing automation processes. Custom actuators are also available upon request.
