SMC Introduces the EMY2 Electric Rodless to its Family of Guided Actuators



Tustin, CA - SMC Corporation, the world's largest manufacturer of pneumatic automation products has announced the release of the EMY2 electric guided slide table actuator. The EMY2 combines the smooth operation, flexibility, and high positioning accuracy of a stepper motor actuator with the quick setup, simple actuation, and low cost of its pneumatic equivalent.

The EMY2 features a user-friendly control box for manual operation, and can be actuated using just two PLC outputs like a solenoid valve--one for move left, another for move right, and both for move to center. It also provides four status outputs and five LEDs for at-a-glance visual indication. Magnetically triggered hall effect sensors can also be mounted along the length of the actuator for additional position verification.

Available in two base sizes, the EMY2 can handle payloads up to 70 lbs, with stroke lengths from 50 to 1,000 mm. Stroke stop blocks let you tailor the stroke length to suit the application. For added value, the slider & guide rail portion of the actuator can be separated from the motor & control box for maintenance or easier installation. The motor & control box can be positioned on the left or right side of the actuator, facing up or downward.
