Rotary Actuators deliver optimized torque.

Press Release Summary:





With few moving parts, Rotary Actuators offer maximum torque up to 1700 Nm, rotational motion ranges from 100-360°, and speeds up to 20 rpm. Preloaded ball-screw assembly and gear-tooth profile eliminate backlash and promote precise motion, high repeatability, and stiffness. Compact and lubricated for life, actuators are delivered ready-to-mount and can be customized with specialized internal and external components.

Compact and Ready-to-Mount: SKF® Rotary Actuators Deliver Optimized Torque In Small Package



SKF® Rotary Actuators provide precise positioning, accuracy, and repeatability in heavy-duty industrial applications, including high-power switching, gas turbines, and assembly operations among others. They are designed to deliver optimized torque in a small package and feature modular construction to enable cost-effective customization tailored for particular application requirements.

These actuators are further lubricated for life, require no maintenance, and incorporate few moving parts to promote trouble-free operation and longer service life.

SKF rotary actuators are compact, self-contained, and delivered ready-to-mount for easy plug-in operation (AC or DC power supply). They can achieve maximum torque up to 1700 Nm, rotational motion ranges from 100º to 360º (depending on rack length), and speeds up to 20 RPM.

They typically serve as practical alternatives to conventional worm gears in effecting partial rotary motion. Their complete preloaded ball-screw assembly and special gear-tooth profile virtually eliminate backlash and promote precise motion, high repeatability and stiffness.

SKF rotary actuators can be customized with specialized internal and external components, including modifications to output shafts, variety of controls, and multiple motor options to satisfy the most demanding applications.
