ETH Series Electric Cylinders
The Parker ETH Series Electric Cylinders are the next generation of the industry proven ET Series. This high-force, ball-screw driven, electric cylinder employs a dramatically new and improved ball nut and screw design paired with over-sized thrust bearings in order to attain industry leading force density and allowing it to compete with similarly sized roller screw and hydraulic products. Relative to its predecessor this means a dramatic increase in force output allowing the designer to reduce one frame size and attain the same or better performance, which equates to space savings and cost reduction. The ETH is ideally suited for thrust type applications such as pressing, bending and forming and offers significant control advantages over typical fluid power solutions.
• Thrusts up to 114,000 N
• 5 profile sizes (ISO 32, 50, 80, 100, and 125)
• Oversized ballscrews and thrust bearings
• 4-5X higher force or 10X longer life
• Dual angular contact thrust bearings
• Maximum stroke: 2 meters
• Inline or parallel motor mounting
• Nine different ISO mounting options
• Six different rod end options including Linear Rod Guide Module for additional side load support
• Maximum speed: 1.7 m/s
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 ETH 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
