SCHNEEBERGER Introduces its New SLA Actuator: High-Performance Linear Positioning at an Economical Price

Representing a unique position among high-performance actuators, only the new SLA Actuators deliver SCHNEEBERGER quality, engineering expertise, and global service in a highly customizable super-compact design at an impressively affordable price.

WOBURN, MASS., (June 1, 2021) — SCHNEEBERGER® Inc. today announced the introduction of its new SLA Actuator, delivering high-performance linear positioning at an economical price.


Representing a unique position among high-performance actuators, only the new SLA Actuators deliver SCHNEEBERGER quality, engineering expertise, and global service in a highly customizable super-compact design at an impressively affordable price.

SLA Actuators utilize recirculating ball linear guides that ensure smooth motion and high load capacity. They feature a lightweight precision aluminum base, offer easy assembly, and are stackable without additional brackets.

The SLA Actuator is highly customizable to meet the demands of virtually any precision linear motion control application. The actuator is offered in both a lead screw design as well as a ball screw version for higher speeds and duty cycles. Features include a wide base for maximum stiffness, custom lengths up to an industry-leading 1 meter, an anti-backlash leadscrew nut, and built-in proximity or photoelectric sensors. Additional options include different motor flanges, brake options, a linear encoder option, a cover option for contamination protection, and servo, stepper, and smart motor control options. SLA Actuators are available for clean environment use.

The new SLA Actuator is immediately available. For more information, or to get a copy of the new SLA Actuator product catalog and specification guide, call SCHNEEBERGER at 1-800-854-6333. Or, download the catalog from the web at https://bit.ly/3uERHfw.
