July 20, 2009 – Parker’s Electromechanical Automation Division announces that Bayside Gen II gearheads are now available as a standard option on Daedal brand of HPLA and HLE positioners. After achieving more than one million cycles under thorough, rigorous testing conditions, Parker’s PS, PV and PX gearheads are now standard options on the Daedal HPLA and HLE series of belt-driven positioners. The highest-quality solution is now available as a standard configurable part number within each product of the belt drive series. This new option means shorter lead times, fewer components and less complexity (since there’s no need for additional bearing supports for the motor pulley). The HPLA can move loads 50 meters, while the HLE actuator has a 20-meter range.
Both the HPLA and HLE actuators handle speeds up 5 meters per second, loads to 1,600 kg and generate up to 5,500 N of thrust force. Additional HPLA/HLE features include:
- Nominal drive torque up to 244Nm
- Repeatability up to ± 0.05mm
- High degree of mechanical efficiency
- Independent multiple carriages can be used on one linear actuator for rack-and-pinion drive Bayside’s Gen II PS, PV and PX gearheads feature high torque, high efficiency and quiet operation.
