MCE Linear Actuators
Sanyo Denki has partnered with NSK to develop the MCE Linear Actuators as part of the pioneering Monocarrier series. NSK has seamlessly integrated their accumulated expertise with ball screws, linear guides and support bearings into a lightweight, compact single- and dual-axis actuators and combined it with highly precise Sanyo Denki stepper and servo systems. NSK has expanded their line of Monocarriers to deliver the MCE series: a preassembled and pretested motorized actuator.
• NSK precision ground ball screw
• NSK linear guide with K1™ lubrication
• NSK support bearings
• NSK inline or side wrap motor mount
• Sanyo Denki Stepper or Servo motor
• Optional accessories such as covers, sensor kits and sensor rails
When starting a new motion control project involving a precision stage, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine the optimum size actuator and level of precision required for the job. They perform all necessary engineering calculations to make sure the stage 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.
To ensure a precision stage fits the customer’s requirements, In-Position Technologies engineers review:
• Repeatability
• Positional Accuracy
• Straightness & Flatness
• Actuator thrust, travel, and motion profile calculations
• Life calculations given the load
• 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 specified
When ordering MCE Linear Actuators 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
