New Size 34 Captive Linear Actuator



HSI is proud to introduce a Size 34 captive linear actuator, the latest addition to its growing hybrid motor line. Joining the other hybrid motors, the size 34 incorporates the same high performance and durable proven design. Taking advantage of 20 years of experience in the manufacturing of captive linear actuators in smaller sizes, HSI has adapted the technology developed with the can-stack motor to the hybrid design.

Similar to its non-captive relative, the patent pending high performance engineering thermoplastics in the rotor drive nut ensures trouble free, exceptional long life operations for use in high precision applications. A stainless steel splined shaft coupled to a stainless steel lead screw allows for precise motion control with resolutions ranging from 0.0005" (.0127 mm) per step to 0.005" (.127 mm) per step. Speeds exceed 3.0" (7.62 cm) per second and delivers forces up to 500 lbs. (227 Kg).

The captive linear actuator is designed with an internal anti-rotation mechanism and is especially well suited for applications in which external anti-rotation methods would be difficult or impossible to employ. Captive linear travel requirements beyond a few inches may be impractical and the factory should be consulted in these cases to discuss the best solution for the application.

Applications requiring precise positioning and rapid motion are best suited for this motor. Typical applications include medical equipment, printing equipment, HVAC equipment, X-Y Tables, packaging equipment, industrial automation of any kind, valve control and many more. The applications are only limited by the designer's imagination. Priced aggressively, this product is ideal for drop-in replacements to improve performance and life or for incorporation into your next project. In addition to standard configurations, HSI can custom design this motor to meet your specific application requirements.
