Mini EleCylinder with Built-in Controller by IAI Intelligent Actuator
Manufacturer: IAI Intelligent Actuator
Miniature sizes and even smaller models
Small and ultra-mini EleCylinder are ideal for conveying or pressing workpieces in confined spaces. Even if they are installed behind covers.
These 2-or 3-point positioning actuators also have built-in controller, motor and encoder despite their minimal sizes. In addition, they are equipped with a recirculating ball screw and built-in linear guide.
The speeds are adjustable to any value, from low-speed to high-speed operation. Due to their modular structure, individual parts can be replaced, which simplifies maintenance. The service life is approx. 5 million cycles.
The handheld programming device "Touch Panel TB-03" can communicate wirelessly with EleCylinder actuators within a radius of 5 m via Blootooth. This enables status feedback, position and speed input, test runs and much more.
Even actuators that are already firmly installed behind covers and invisible from the outside can be reprogrammed quickly and easily.
The complete EleCylinder series is optionally available with the “3-position mode specification”. This means that stops are not only possible at the set start and end positions, but also in between.
In certain applications, the cycle time can be shortened by stopping at intermediate positions.
Built-in motor, encoder & controller
Despite their small size, mini EleCylinder actuators also have a built-in motor, encoder and controller.
In addition, all EleCylinders are also available with a battery-free absolute encoder. Without a battery, no maintenance is required and reference point movements are not necessary after commissioning, emergency stop or faults. This increases the operating time and reduces production costs.
