Closed-Loop Linear Actuators w/ Stepper Motors, Encoders, and Controllers
A-BAR-E Series
Zaber's A-BAR-E Series products are computer controlled, motorized, ball screw driven linear actuators (electric cylinders) with integrated feedback encoders. They are stand-alone units requiring only a standard 48 V power supply. A built-in encoder allows closed-loop operation and slip/stall recovery features. A manual knob at the end of the unit permits manual control - press and hold to switch between velocity mode and distance mode, turn to move the actuator, and press to stop.

Air Actuators
Del-Tron's linear air actuators (also referred to as linear actuators) are pneumatically actuated crossed roller slide assemblies controlled by a pair of Airpot air cylinders which provide extremely low friction and stiction characteristics. A light touch or physical obstruction will stop the unit’s movement to prevent damage to delicate and expensive equipment and parts. Low pressure operation is possible. The PNRE series requires less than 10 psi to operate.
