Compact Linear Systems
-
Take the guesswork out of specifying multiple components for your linear motion designs. Thomson compact linear systems address the need for thrust and bearing support in a single, small-scale unit for space-conscious applications. Whether you opt for one of our three standard architectures (see below) or work with our engineers on a “from scratch” solution, your application requirements will determine the selection and sizing of your system components.

Linear Actuators
Electrak LA14
-
Electrak LA14 is based on the Electrak 10 design, which incorporates a screw drive system for applications requiring maximum load capacity, robust performance, and long life. Its additional benefits offer the a built-in anti rotation mechanism and an aluminium cover tube. The aluminium cover tube has T-slots that can be used for mounting and also accepts magnetic sensor to be fitted along two sides of the tube.

Precision Linear Actuators
ECT-Series
-
Thomson's ECT Series of Precision Linear Actuators are our highest performing line of electric cylinder systems. Designed for the most demanding applications, the ECT Series is ideal when powerful performance over a long life cycle is required. With a full complement of drive controls, accessories, options, and mounting types, these systems are adaptable to just about any application environment. As a better choice over hydraulic or pneumatic equivalents, the ECT Series are simpler to install, maintain, and control. This family comes in two different sizes mating our traditional Movotrak T90 and T130 actuators with both AC servo and 3 AC induction motor configurations.

Linear Actuators DCG Controls
DCG
-
Thomson now offers a small, lightweight line of 24 VDC units in its DCG family of controls. The DCG controls feature built-in Electronic Limit Switches (ELS) to stop actuator movement automatically at a mid-stroke stall point and end of the stroke. Additionally, synchronous operation of some actuators equipped with encoders is possible.

Linear Actuators DPDT Switches
DPDT
-
Most Thomson actuators require at a minimum the use of a double-pole double-throw remote switch. To better assist our customers, we provide two versions of a DPDT switch (with or without enclosure) to work directly with our actuator units. A wiring diagram label and an "OFF" center position are included.

Non-Driven Linear Actuators
Electrak PPA-M
-
Electrak PPA-M actuators are designed for robust and versatile multi-purpose functionality. With dual input shaft capability, these actuators are easily adaptable to customer-supplied motors and/or synchronous operation with multiple PPA-M units. Able to withstand harsh environments, these highly efficient ball screw units can be operated manually and are essentially maintenance free.

Linear Actuator Controls
AC-063
-
Thomson offers the AC-063 control for use with its Electrak PPA, Electrak 10, and DMD actuators. Rugged and robust in design while operating under the hardest of conditions with a tough plastic enclosure. Variations include AC or DC inputs, with or without limit switch inputs, and with or without control pendants.

Product
Actuators
-
An actuator is a cleaner and more efficient alternative to hydraulic and pneumatic solutions. Electric actuators convert rotary motion of gears and a ball or lead screw into straight, or linear, motion for accurate, repeatable performance of pushing/pulling, raising/lowering, rotating or positioning loads.
