Mechanical Linear Actuator and Accessories



Varieties of mechanical linear actuators and accessories from Fixtureworks.

Fixtureworks now offers a line of mechanical linear actuators. These mechanical linear actuators are preassembled and ready to use. No part selection, no designing and no assembly is necessary on these simple to use manual linear actuators.

The carriage moves along with the rotation of the shaft. The internal parts are protected from dust by its aluminum profile body and dustproof sheet. There are different types of linear actuators available, such as a standard size or a compact type with a lighter body and for use in smaller spaces. They are available for use as a single unit or as a linked, synchro-use dual unit.

The standard or traditional mechanical linear actuators come with a single carriage that moves along with the rotation of the shaft. They can be used horizontally or vertically.

With the synchro-use dual actuators, the two carriages move toward each other when the handle shaft is turned clockwise. The two carriages move away from each other when the handle shaft is turned counterclockwise. As with the standard linear actuators, they can be used with simple manual adjustments without complex processes of parts selection, design and assembly. The internal parts, as well, are protected from dust by an aluminum profile body and dustproof sheet.

A variety of accessories are available that are made for use with Fixtureworks mechanical manual linear actuators, such as adaptor shafts that are designed to extend and adapt the diameter of shafts of the compact mechanical linear actuators, shaft locks that can be used to prevent actuator shafts from rotating. T-Nuts, stops and groove covers are also available. Indicator handwheels and knobs connect to any spindle with a setscrew. Indicators have a wide range of applications such as reading revolutions, reading slide feeds, reading flow rate and reading conveyor speed.
