Oriental Introduces Linear Slides and Cylinders

August 11, 2014
Oriental Motor USA is proud to introduce its newest and most cost effective linear actuators, the EAS Series motorized linear slides and the EAC Series motorized cylinders. Capable of operating from low speed to high speed and with light loads or heavy loads, these motorized linear slides and cylinders are easier to use and offer high performance regardless of demanding operating conditions. Available in a traditional straight type or now with a space saving reversed motor type at the same price, these actuators are designed to maximize space and provide simple maintenance. The EAC cylinder comes with or without a guide for maximum design flexibility. Constructed with a ball screw drive method the EAS and EAC series have a maximum horizontal transportable mass of 60 kg, maximum vertical transportable mass of 30 kg. The EAS and EAC Series are equipped with the AR Series motor and driver package, which means a common drive platform for many actuator applications including motor and driver only if required. 2 types of EAS and EAC Series drivers are available to match the requirements of the host PLC (master controller): built-in controller (stored data) with Modbus (RTU) or pulse input type.
