Better. Faster. Stronger.

Machines need to run longer, faster and with less maintenance than ever before. Electric linear motion presents a cost-effective way to better your competition, while saving space - versus bulky hydraulic equivalents.

Let's Talk

INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

  • Industry-wide automation has resulted in a push to run machines faster and with bigger loads.
  • High duty cycles often require brushless motors, which increases costs.
  • High vibration poses maintenance challenges for mechanical systems.

Our Solution

  • With protection ratings of IP67M/IP69K, you are guaranteed a reliable performance in the most adverse conditions.
  • High accuracy, precision, and repeatability maximizes your results and efficiency.
  • Integrated hydraulic over electric solutions for high vibration environments.

Popular Applications

Efficiency gains and quality design ensure Progressive Automations is at the forefront of industrial linear motion. Experience powerful performance and adaptability with zero maintenance.

ADAS/SENSOR ADJUSTMENT

Ultra-long stroke sizes can accommodate any size vehicle, providing consistent speeds and precision adjustment to ensure accurate sensor readings. Opting for feedback in your industrial linear actuator will allow you to coordinate multi-axis motion.

MATERIAL HANDLING

Bulk solids, conveyors, or pick-and-place; all varying requirements but all feasible loads for our industrial actuators. Designed with stainless steel for caustic environments and food-safe areas, these devices run machines faster while needing significantly less maintenance.

AUTOMATED GUIDED VEHICLES

Utilize our heavy-duty actuators for height and position adjustment or grippers or attachments on AGVs. A key benefit is the eliminated need for on-board pumps and hoses. Low power consumption lets you re-charge less frequently, keeping efficiency and cost-effectiveness in mind.

VENDING MACHINES

Food, drinks, or propane cylinders: regardless of the content, automated vending is made achievable with space-efficient linear motion that is cold and heat resistant. Enjoy superior reliability and low implementation costs with our solutions.

HOPPERS, FEEDERS & SLEUTHS

Accuracy, correct positioning, and feedback let you design a maintenance-free device that always supplies the сorrect amount of substance. Thanks to our industry-leading IP ratings, our heavy-duty electric actuators are dust and water-tight.

Our Customization Capabilities

POSITIONAL FEEDBACK

Analog or digital, we offer a variety of feedback options such as hall effect sensors, potentiometers, reed switches and limit switch feedback. Some of our actuators are available with onboard RS-485 or TTL/PWM communications protocol. 

STROKE LENGTH

Exact stroke lengths can be customized down to the millimeter or inch, with maximum strokes of over 1500 millimeter or 60 inches. With hundreds of options in stock at all times, you don’t have to wait around for a perfect fit.

FORCE

From a few Newtons to over 65kN, we have options for applications of all sizes. Flexibly trade off force for speed, or vice versa, and get the ideal combination to fit your needs.

CONNECTORS

The connectors that come with each actuator are changeable based on your requirements. Our actuators generally come with either tinned wires or Mini Fit Jr Molex Connectors pre-installed, but the choice is yours.

MOTOR OR STROKE MOUNTING ENDS

We have multiple customization options available to suit your actuator’s mounting requirements. Fisheye, mounting holes, any clevis type, trunnions, or custom designed solutions are available.

VOLTAGE

You can increase or decrease the voltage of your actuator to suit your application. From 7.4V DC to 48V DC, we have a wide range to fit your needs. You can also avail of plug and play solutions if AC power is required. 

IP RATING

Do you need that extra bit of protection for your actuator? Salt-spray and anti-corrosive coatings may be the way to go. Upgrade your unit today withIP69K ingress protection for peace of mind and long unit life.
