SMAC: Linear actuator

SMAC Moving Coil Actuators introduces the LBL series linear actuator that features flat printed coil and single-piece, screw down magnets. Starting with stroke lengths of 25 mm and 50 mm, the range will extend up to 200 mm.

The LBL series generates peak force 60N and is extremely fast with accelerations over 50G.

It’s equipped with SMAC proprietary encoder and gives >100 million cycle expected life.

The LBL can be integrated into “STACK”, electric manifold actuators, for OEM multi-actuator stations. The SMAC Stack concept does the same thing for actuators that manifolds did for air valves. It is a cost effective solution for automating multiple axes with a built-in controller option via CANopen, Ethernet/IP and EtherCAT. It simplifies mounting and reduce cabling of multi actuators. It allows easy, quick exchange of units, which reduces down time.
