EMG ESZ Electro-Servo Cylinder
EMG ESZ Electro-Servo-Cylinder
The Electro-Servo-Cylinder developed by EMG is used as a control and positioning cylinder. It converts by means of a Planetary Gear Thread (PGT) the rotation generated by a threephase current motor into a linear movement. The function principle is based on a rolling motion at low friction and consequently low wear.
The standard model of the Electro-Servo-Cylinder consists of the following components:
- threephase asynchronous motor
- spindle with planetary gear thread, thrust housing and piston rod with knuckle
- rotating lock of piston rod
- housing with pivot
