KX Series Electric Cylinders

KX Series Electric Cylinders

UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY

The KX Series Electric Cylinders from Exlar provide a truly universal solution for a multitude of rod-style actuator applications. Now available in 60, 75, and 90 mm frame sizes.

Big Performance and Small Form Factor

These robust electric actuators provide an ideal replacement for pneumatic cylinders and feature comparable dimensions with a similar form factor. The optional roller screw drives are a superior replacement for hydraulic cylinders. Better performance, greater flexibility, and longer life culminate to make the KX Series a smart choice for many applications.

The high performance planetary roller screw in the KX class offers performance that is far superior to competing actuator technologies. These actuators are ideal for Exlar automation, mobile equipment, process control and many other demanding applications.

• Flexible design suitable for numerous applications and configurations
• Universal mounting options compatible with DC, stepper, and servo motors
• Preconfigured parallel and inline motor mounts available for most motors
• Multiple models for maximum flexibility
• Anodized aluminum housing with sealed body options for harsh environments
• Specialized material and coating options
• Built for long life and low maintenance
• Up to 900 mm stroke lengths
• Up to 833 mm/sec linear speeds
• Up to 15 kN thrust

When starting a new actuator project, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine the optimum size actuator for the job. They perform all necessary engineering calculations to make sure the cylinder performs as required, within customer specification, and without unnecessary cost. They will also recommend the appropriate motors, controllers, and drives that will best fit the application selected actuator.

This includes:

• Actuator thrust, travel, and motion profile calculations
• Life calculations
• Ensuring compatibility with the motor
• Specifying the appropriate options such as environmental ratings and limit switches
• Verifying mounting compatibility, form factor checks, etc…
• Ensuring all necessary accessories are also specified

When ordering KX Series Electric Cylinders as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and accessories necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
