Linear Actuators

Isotech belt drives and actuators are available in three different configurations, allowing engineers to select standard models for off-the-shelf availability, plug-and-play models for ready out-of-the-box automation, and customer built models that allow for a wide range of configurations. Standard Belt Driven Actuators Standard actuators are available in stock trave... Read more...

Series 'TK' is made entirely of steel. This feature allows high load capacity, high precision positioning and repeatability with overall dimensions very content. This series can be dimensionally interchanged with other popular Ball screw driven driven actuators. All mounting surfaces and reference are adjusted so as to ensure a high degree of dimensional accuracy... Read more...

Del-Tron's Posi-Drive™ lead screw actuators are compact and economical, taking the work out of designing linear motion systems. Available in 3 size profiles, our lead screw actuators require no alignment of components and install with standard fasteners. Read more...

Del-Tron's linear air actuators (also referred to as linear actuators) are pneumatically actuated crossed roller slide assemblies controlled by a pair of Airpot air cylinders which provide extremely low friction and stiction characteristics. A light touch or physical obstruction will stop the unit's movement to prevent damage to delicate and expensive equipment and parts. Read more...

Del-Tron's belt-driven DB series actuators operate at speeds up to 5.1 meters per second (MPS) and do not require lubrication or maintenance under normal operating conditions. Del-Tron's DB series actuators are ideal for use in applications where speed is critical such as pick-and-place applications on high speed automation equipment. Read more...

Del-Tron's DL series linear lead screw actuators and ball screw actuators offer the benefits of a space-saving design, fast and simple assembly, long life, and a competitive price. The rigid enclosed aluminum box structure provides a compact envelope that incorporates the linear bearing and drive mechanism. Read more...
