The advantages of Exlar roller screw actuators in precision grinding application is that the accuracy and repeatability tolerance is less than 3 micron metres.
It's possible to make very slow move speeds in the range of 0.01mm/s upto higher speed as needed including retracting at 254mm/s.
The reliability of electric actuation means life cycles over +20 years and no expensive hydraulic noise power packs, cooling systems, corrosion of pipes, also minimising installation time.
The applied force available for for GSX range is up to 2-55kN with travel distances up to 75-450mm.
The FT series high force actuator range can applied force from in the range of 22kN-300kN continuous with travel available from 150mm to 1200mm.
The lifetime of the roller screw technology ensure very long machine life typically +10 years with low maintenance and repeatable performance.
Olsen also has a NEW Capsule style electro-hydraulic sealed for life actuator technology, which can make position repeatability of 0.5 micron metres with no wearing parts from the applied loading. Typically this can offer +15 million cycles with no maintenance or wear of moving parts.
