MXE-S Linear Actuators

The MXE-S utilizes solid linear guides for medium size load support, and cost reduction.

The MXE is Tolomatic’s most advanced Screw driven linear actuator series, with 2 different carrier guide options: Solid Bearing (S) and Profiled Rail (P). The Solid Bearing carrier is robustly designed with adjustable solid Delrin bearings. These bearings provide medium load support and are less susceptible to particulate in the environment like exposed ball bearing systems do.

6 Body Sizes
Maximum Load carrying capacity up to 1,040 lbf (472 kg)
Stroke lengths up to 134 in (3.4m)
Travel speeds up to 60 in/s (1.5 m/s)
Acme and Ball Screw drive options
Auxiliary carrier option for increased load and moment support
