Self-contained linear axes – servo-hydraulic or electromechanical
Self-contained axes with mechanical or hydraulic gearboxes are compelling for many reasons:
They are space-saving and low-maintenance, can be precisely controlled, simplify the engineering and can be ordered completely ready to install.
We offer a tailor-made portfolio of electromechanical and servo-hydraulic axes with a standardized electrical drive, engineering and control concept.
Our electro mechanical cylinders and self-contained actuators – direct comparison
The selection of the right technology for a self-contained linear drive is based primarily on the required performance characteristics, such as load, dynamics and distance, but other factors, such as desired service life, temperature range, protection class and the required degree of controllability, should also be considered.
