The new BASE series

The LE-BASE actuators integrate many of the advantages of electric actuators and supplement them with essential features for demanding industrial requirements. In addition to sealing to protection class IP65, rotatable circular connectors of size M15 with a self-locking quick-release system have been integrated. The maximum stroke is scalable in steps of 45, 85 and 115 millimetres, whereby any positioning within the maximum stroke is possible without restriction. A centring collar has been provided on the flange for mounting and alignment in customer applications. Optional swivelling and adapter flanges, which can be mounted on both the front and rear of the actuator, ensure greater flexibility.

The BASE series does not have an integrated drive controller and is therefore independent in the use of preceding controls. The freedom to use different controller manufacturers thus enables integration into various bus systems and leaves all control options open to the plant manufacturers and operators. Compatible motion controllers can be found here. 

The liteECO® Concept:

The SMELA liteECO® series is the most compact electromechanical alternative to pneumatic short-stroke cylinders thanks to its patented arrangement of motor and mechanics. This makes them ideal for the many linear movements required in production lines, machine tools or packaging systems.

A servomotor A servomotor including positioning sensors enables the movement of simple to complex profiles: for fixing, adjusting, locking and travelling any movement processes. The highly efficient motor saves up to 90 % energy compared to pneumatic systems. Together with the smart arrangement of the mechanics in the motor, the actuator saves up to 80 % installation space compared to existing electrical solutions. The liteECO® series also offers the option of simple refurbishment. Replacing a worn mechanism is extremely simple and helps the actuators to achieve several life cycles: sustainable, cost- and resource-saving.
