Key features of the MTB 105 High-Speed Belt-Driven Linear Actuator include:
• Fully enclosed actuator with stainless steel magnetically coupled band strip seal to assist in keeping actuator enclosed while carriage is in motion.
• High acceleration, speed, and rigidity.
• Long travel length.
• Low friction, noise, and vibration.
• Anodized aluminum corrosion-resistant body and carriage.
• Urethane steel corded reinforced belt to handle high loads.
• Adjustable belt tension.
• T-slots for mounting and sensor mounting.
• Various female and male input drive interface options are offered.
"We are excited to introduce the MTB 105 High-Speed Belt-Driven Linear Actuator as the latest addition to our MTB Series product line," said David Dieter, President at PBC Linear.
