Rollon has released a redesigned series of ball-screw-driven TV linear actuators, which are available in three sizes. The update improves moment load capacity through a wider guide block configuration and adds protective sealing for industrial environments.
Why it matters
This hardware revision aims to increase the structural durability and reliability of linear motion systems in demanding industrial applications. The design changes focus on improving load handling and component longevity.
The actuators achieve a positioning repeatability of 5μm. They are available in sizes 65, 80, and 110, featuring a wider span between two linear guide blocks to support higher moment loads.
The players
Rollon
A global manufacturer specializing in linear motion systems, including linear guides, telescopic rails, and actuators for industrial automation.
The details
The redesigned TV series uses a wider support span between two linear guide blocks to enhance the actuator's resistance to rotational forces, known as moment loads. To protect the ball-screw drive from contaminants, a polyurethane sealing belt is now held in place by internal micro-bearings that minimize sliding friction. For extended travel lengths, the design includes optional internal supports for the ball screw, a mechanical threaded rod that translates rotary motion into linear force.
