Electric Actuators - Actuators with Battery-less Absolute Encoders

  • LEFS Slider, Ball Screw Drive, Battery-less Absolute Encoder

    The rodless LEFS slider is an electric actuator with a load mounting platform situated above a ball screw drive.  A flexible seal band permits platform travel while preventing foreign matter from entering the drive.  Slider advantages include a low profile height, shorter length than a rod with equivalent stroke, and better positioning repeatability than a belt driven slider.  This version includes a 24VDC motor with a battery-less absolute encoder.  This encoder allows the actuator to be powered down without losing its positional awareness.  The machine's PLC can access the controller's operational and positional step data through several fieldbus protocols, IO-Link, or parallel I/O.

  • LEFS Ball Screw Slider, High Performance with Battery-less Absolute Encoder

    LEFS*G is a high performance version of the standard slider, also equipped with the battery-less encoder onboard the motor.  This encoder allows the actuator to be powered down without losing its positional awareness.  Further, battery replacement and recycling are eliminated.  Load capacities have increased 9-50%.  Cycle time is dramatically reduced by a combination of higher maximum speed and acceleration/deceleration.  Note that maximum speed gains are primarily in the 50-400mm stroke range, ranging from 5-36% faster depending on motor size and ballscrew pitch.  The LEFS*G actuator pairs with a high performance step motor controller, the JXC*H.  Actuator dimensions and mounting are identical to the standard LEFS, allowing an updgrade for exisiting equipment
