January 26, 2009 - Festo announces the EGC Electric Actuator. The EGC is designed for high dynamic speeds and high rigidity. This modular actuator can be used as an individual component adapted to third-party motors or as a complete system provided by one source – Festo.
Broad Range of Options
Toothed belt or ball screw actuatorDifferent screw pitches availableSizes 70, 80, 120, 185 (ball screw)Sizes 50, 70, 80, 120, 185 (toothed belt)
Performance Highlights
- High speeds and feed forces
- High loads and torques
- Maximum rigidity In addition to these features, the EGC offers an excellent price-performance ratio.
