Electric Cylinders & Servo Motion

Compare servo and stepper linear actuator systems by feedback, speed-torque behavior, positioning, holding, heat, controls, and application fit.

Size a servo-driven rod axis by force, stroke, speed, duty cycle, screw lead, mounting, motor, drive, feedback, environment, and validation.

Select an electromechanical press axis by force profile, stroke, approach and working speed, repeatability, stiffness, load-cell feedback, duty cycle, safety, and validation.

Compare servo screw cylinders and packaged linear actuators by force, speed, duty, feedback, holding, mounting, and complete system needs.

Compare Acme, ball and roller screw designs by efficiency, load density, speed, precision, backdriving, life, maintenance and total system cost.
