Closed-Loop Motorized Linear Actuators with Built-in Encoders
LAR-E Series
Zaber's LAR-E Series products are computer controlled, precision lead screw driven, motorized linear actuators (electric cylinders) with integrated feedback encoders. A built-in encoder allows closed-loop operation and slip/stall recovery features. Each electric cylinder is wired for use with Zaber's A-Series stepper motor controllers, or they can be used with any 2-phase stepper motor controller through the panel mount DB15 connector. When connected to our A-Series controllers, the actuators are designed to be "plug and play" just like all of Zaber's other products.

Air Actuators
Del-Tron's linear air actuators (also referred to as linear actuators) are pneumatically actuated crossed roller slide assemblies controlled by a pair of Airpot air cylinders which provide extremely low friction and stiction characteristics. A light touch or physical obstruction will stop the unit’s movement to prevent damage to delicate and expensive equipment and parts. Low pressure operation is possible. The PNRE series requires less than 10 psi to operate.
