Application Description:
Using vacuum induction melting to heat treat and refine ingot material/chemistry for use in a variety of different molds
Product Family: Electric
Product Used: B3W Rodless Actuator
Challenge: This application required an electric rodless actuator to sort metal strips through a machine by operating a sorting wall back and forth.
Product Family: Electric
Product Used: B3W Linear Belt-Drive Actuators
Challenge: A manufacturer of high-quality castings needed an electric actuator to replace existing high maintenance hydraulic actuators.
Product Family: RSX Extreme Force Rod-Style Electric Actuator
Product Used: RSX096
B3W linear belt drive actuators have an enclosed ball bearing design for heavy loads, high bending moments, and long service life.
High force, heavy duty electric rod actuators ideal for mounting large motors. Replace hydraulic cylinders with the RSA-HT with a roller screw option in challenging environments. Forces up to 13,000 lbf (58.0 kN).
