Roller-Screw Option on Tolomatic's Integrated Servomotor Actuator (IMA) Makes it the Longest Lasting Integrated Electric Actuator
May 18, 2010
MOTION CONTROL: Tolomatic’s integrated-motor rod-style actuator (IMA) is now capable of delivering up to 3,300 lbs of force when equipped with the new roller-screw option. The Tolomatic IMA incorporates a hollow core rotor and skewed motor windings into its unique servomotor design for an extremely compact package with increased dynamic performance and service life compared to traditional rod-style actuators. The IMA’s unique integrated motor design is well suited for applications such as pressing, clamping, valve control, spot welding and volumetric filling.
The hollow core rotor design allows the nut of the screw to pass inside the rotor to provide a very compact package. The compact footprint and efficient operation of the IMA, combined with the flexibility of control from an electric actuator, makes the IMA a powerful and viable alternative for replacing fluid power cylinders.
The Tolomatic IMA with the new roller-screw option can exert a force of up to 3,300 pounds and move a top speed of about 12 inches per second. The IMA is available with a choice of motor voltages in any incremental stroke length from 6 inches to18 inches. Built with Tolomatic’s Endurance Technology features for maximum durability and extended service life, the IMA has a patent-pending lead-screw lubrication system that allows easy re-lubrication without disassembly. Tolomatic’s sizing and selection software makes selecting an IMA easy. All orders are built-to-order and shipped with Tolomatic’s industry leading five-day delivery.
