www.parker.com/actuator/P5T2 series thruster
The P5T2 series thruster features short-stroke, heavy-duty performance in a smaller footprint than conventional thrusters that use external cylinders. It is ideal for handling frequent stops on conveyor equipment, tamping and pressing on packaging machinery, as well as the unloading/loading and clamping processes on assembly machinery. Available in 12-, 16-, 20-, 25-, 32-, 40-, 50-, 63-, 80-, and 100-mm bore sizes with strokes up to 200 mm, the P5T2 series can operate at pressures up to 1 MPa. Standard features include through-hole mounting and top porting. The thruster series has: aluminum body and end caps; steel tool plate, support rods, and rod bolts; and a stainless steel piston rod. Standard nitrile seals operate at temperatures between –18°C and 74°C. A PTFE impregnated composite bushing provides high-load carrying capabilities with excellent resistance to shock loading.
LCB Series of compact linear actuators
The LCB Series of compact linear actuators incorporates a low-friction, dry-running sliding bearing carriage that provides long, reliable travel life — even at 100% duty cycle. Coupled with the manufacturer’s motors/controls, the actuator series offers a fully programmable, high-performance solution at a competitive price, while reducing space requirements. Low carriage mass and a steel-reinforced timing belt enable high acceleration and sustained velocity. With acceleration at 20 m/s2 and speeds up to 8 m/s, the LCB Series can achieve throughput comparable to linear motors at a fraction of the cost. The simple, cost-effective design makes these linear actuators ideal for replacing pneumatic actuators in applications that require tight control, accuracy and high performance.
