Moving coil actuators from SMAC

SMAC voice coil (or moving coil) actuators and positioning stages are unique in that their force, position, acceleration and velocity are freely and totally programmable.

New CA range of electric cylinder actuatorsUtilising SMAC's proprietary linear motor technology, they are designed to perform at exceptionally high speeds and with a very high degree of accuracy & repeatability.

High quality materials, heavy duty linear guides and careful design to minimise the number of wearing parts result in a incredibly long-lived device. Life times of several hundred-million cycles are commonplace.

SMAC LA range of voice coil actuatorsAll models are provided with closed-loop position feedback by non-contact linear encoders with resolution options ranging from 5 microns to 5 nanometres. The direct drive nature of their linear motor completely eliminates backlash and means repeatability figures of +/- 2 encoder counts are assured.

When combined with one of SMAC's controllers, SMAC actuators become a powerful motion solution with flexible I/O capabilities, an intelligent & intuitive programming language and exceptional dynamic performance.

This makes them ideal for a wide range of positioning, measuring, inspection, assembly and pick & place applications, particularly where 100% verification is required.
