ELECTRIC CYLINDER MODELS
ELECTRIC CYLINDER MODELS

ActionJac™ Electric Cylinders are ruggedly designed and produced in standard models with thrust capacities from 500 lbs. to 40,000 lbs. Electric Cylinders are intended for use in industrial environments and feature ground and hard chrome plated actuator tubes with epoxy paint on exterior surfaces. Electric Cylinders can be supplied for outdoor applications.

These cylinders may be used individually or in multiple arrangements. Each ActionJac™ Electric Cylinder is built to specification.

ActionJac DD Worm Gear Electric Cylinder Linear Actuators

DD WORM GEAR ELECTRIC CYLINDERS
DD or “Direct Drive” worm gear driven Electric Cylinders incorporate an alloy steel worm which drives a high strength bronze worm gear (drive sleeve). The worm shaft is supported on anti-friction tapered roller bearings with external seals provided to prevent loss of lubrication (sealed radial bearings on the Series 5 and Series 10 units). The drive sleeve is supported on anti-friction tapered roller or ball thrust bearings. The jack housing is made of ductile iron and proportioned to support the rated capacity of the unit.

In operation, the drive sleeve rotates the lift shaft causing the actuator tube to extend and retract from the housing tube. Actuator tube must be secured to prevent rotation.

Motors can be mounted to DD Electric Cylinders by using available standard motor mounts. For use in multiple cylinder arrangements, DD Electric Cylinders can be supplied without motor mounts.

The DD Electric Cylinders are available in Acme Screw or Ball Screw versions and have a variety of worm gear ratios resulting in a wide range of speeds and thrust capacities.

ActionJac RAD Worm Gear Electric Cylinder Linear Actuators

RAD WORM GEAR ELECTRIC CYLINDERS
RAD worm gear driven Electric Cylinders incorporate the features of the DD with a second stage of gear reduction. This secondary worm gear reduction of the RAD Electric Cylinders provides higher thrust at lower speeds. The reducer and motor can be mounted in eight possible positions for maximum flexibility.

RAD Electric Cylinders are available in Acme Screw or Ball Screw versions.

ActionJac In-Line Electric Cylinder Linear Actuators

ILA IN-LINE ELECTRIC CYLINDERS
The ILA ActionJac™ In-Line Electric Cylinders are the newest member of the Electric Cylinder family. These cylinders are designed to have a motor or gear reducer directly coupled to the lift shaft. This provides for fast, precise operation and/or higher duty cycles.

ILA Electric Cylinders feature standard trunnion pin mounting and are easily adapted for use with servo motors and planetary gear reducers.

In line Electric Cylinders are Ball Screw actuated. Configurations are available with keyed and un-keyed actuator tubes.
