LEYG, Electric Actuator, Guide Rod Type
The LEYG guided rod electric actuator pairs an LEY actuator with a bolt-on bearing block with double guide rods. The guide rods counter rotational forces instead of the drive and motor, and also resist shock and sustained lateral loads. Guide blocks can be fitted with either slide or ball bushing bearings.

LEYG Guided Rod, Battery-less Absolute Encoder
The LEYG guided rod electric actuator pairs a LEY actuator with a bolt-on bearing block with double guide rods. The guide rods counter rotational forces instead of the drive and motor, and also resist shock and sustained lateral loads. Guide selection offers either slide or ball bushing bearings. The motor orientation can be reverse mounted on top for compact length, or inline for compact height. 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.

LEG, High Rigidity Guide Rod, High Performance, Battery-less Absolute Encoder
LEG is a rod actuator featuring a guide body with two guide rods and a front tool plate. This is the electric version of our well-known MGP pneumatic guided actuator. Guide rod diameters and bushings are larger than those available in the LEYG, offering improved rigidity. The guide rods stabilize the actuator and support offset loads, making LEG suitable as a conveyor stopper, or for lifting or pushing larger objects. The compact extruded body also has grooves for mounting external position sensors. The 24VDC motor includes a battery-less absolute encoder, allowing the actuator to be powered down without losing its positional awareness. Replacement battery inventory and end-of-life recycling efforts are no longer necessary. Motor operation is provided by the JXC*H High Performance controller line, with either PLC or Ethernet fieldbus protocol interfaces.
