Additional IMA-S information

The IMA-S is a hygienically designed integrated electric servo actuator for the food and beverage processing industry. The IP69K rated design features all 316 stainless steel construction, hygienic fasteners and cord grips, ideal for effective cleaning.

Drive Integration

Tolomatic’s integrated motor products (IMA & IMAS) integrate with a wide range manufacturers’ servo drives. Check our Drive Integration Resource for supporting documentation and motor files.

Tolomatic supports integration with Rockwell Automation through the use of custom motor files (CMF). See our Tech Note: interfacing the IMA actuator and absolute encoder with Rockwell Automation servo drives.

Flexible design with options to fit your application

This product line includes an option for an internal anti-rotate feature eliminating the need for an external guidance mechanism, ideal for applications such as volumetric filling and pumping.

Feedback options include multi-turn absolute encoders (Hiperface DSL, Hiperface Sin-Cos, EnDat 2.2), incremental encoder, and a resolver to integrate with most PLC or control systems.
