December 10, 2007 - Waterbury, CT - Haydon Switch & Instrument, Inc. is proud to introduce the 28000 series (Size 11) double stack captive hybrid linear actuator, the latest addition to its continuously growing hybrid motor line. The compact frame size is only 1.1” (28 mm) square. The various linear actuator options deliver unmatched capabilities, opening avenues for equipment designers who require performance and endurance in a compact package.
Built for long life (several million cycles) and superior performance, the size 11 linear actuator features engineering thermoplastics in the rotor drive nut and a stainless steel Acme lead screw, which has made the Haydon products so popular. With this patented design, quiet and maintenance free operation are ensured. This captive hybrid linear actuator is available in a wide variety of resolutions ranging from 0.000125” (.003175 mm) per step to 0.002” (.0508 mm) per step and delivers thrusts of up to 30 lbs. (133 N) without compromising long life.
The captive linear actuator is designed with Haydon’s patented integral anti-rotation mechanism and is especially well suited for applications in which external anti-rotation methods would be difficult or impossible to employ. Captive linear travel ranges from 0.5” (12.7 mm) to 2.5” (63.5 mm).
Applications requiring precise positioning and rapid motion are best suited for this motor. Typical applications include medical equipment, semiconductor handling, valve control, X-Y tables, hand held instruments, telecommunications, and many more. Priced aggressively, this product is ideal for incorporation into your next project.
