VIKAS Linear actuators are manufactured in technical collaboration with michael linear Technik, Germany who have over 25 years experience in manufacturing these actuators for diverse and demanding applications. Electromechanical actuators are preferred all over the world as energy saving, nonpolluting and opperationally reliable alternatives to hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. VIKAS Linear actuator converts the rotary motion of the motor into the linear motion of the thrust tube through a screw-nut system and is used for actuating, positioning and manipulating in all industries. Its rigid and totally enclosed construction is weather and dust proof and is capable of withstanding severe industrial and environmental conditions. Features:- A wide range of design choices and controls for switching and signalling are available to meet various applications needs. Two major types – the Rod type and the rodless (carriage) type – of actuators are manufactured. The rod type actuator by moving and positioning a load has many applications in various industries. The rodless actuator is a complete, space - economical, positioming system designed to position, support and guide a load. The steel spindle screw comes in two formats – the ACME or trapezoidal screw used for most industrial applications and the BALL screw for precision applications such as machine tools, space and robotics. A special bronze nut reduces friction and the thrust tube delivers the force with a controlled linear motion of the loads. The actuator can be stopped at the ends of the stroke by switches or a thrust overload system. Wide range of thrust, stroke, speed in different models. Suitable for ON/OFF isolating duty and modulating/ regulating duty applications. Thrust tube in stainless steel or chrome plated steel. AC or DC drives; standard motor; helical or worm geared motor; stepper or serve motor. Superior features for positioning, feedback and control. Contact or non-contact sensing. Microswitches, inductive switches, magnetic position sensors, independently adjustable multiple geared switches. Feedback potentiometer. Incremental encoder for stall detection and positioning. Sliding mechanical type or electronic power cutoff thrust overload system. Remote positioning and monitoring controls and indication. Motor and actuator assembly in two options – inline or coaxial. Different mounting options such as foot, trunnion, flange or eye mounting. Different rod ends such as eye, fork, flange, male or female threaded ends. Accessories : Electromagnetic brake, handwheel, bellows fot the thrust tube. Adequately lubricated, needing little maintenance. To actuate and control precisely linear motion in open or closed feedback control and connection to computer. To lift/lower, push/pull, close/open, move, turn and position. Up to 10 T of thrust and 2 meters of stroke in standard designs. Trapezoidal or Ball screws. Contact or non-contact sensing for switching and control. Wide applications in many industries such as cement, fertilizer, sugar, chemical, iron & steel, mining, space and robotic application. Manufactured under license from Michael Linear Technik, Germany. Range Rod type actuators with thrust from 100Kg to 10T and stroke up to 2M. Rodless type actuators with thrust up to 6T and stroke up to 3M. Speed from 5mm/Sec to 200mm/Sec. Upright actuators. These stand free vertically and have a coaxial mounting of the drive. Outside the actuators, a square or round tube slides up and down, moving equipmentS. Thrust up to 10T. Multiple actuator units. Two or more actuators are driven synchronously by a single motor with a toothed belt drive. Special constructions for custom solutions. Easily adjustable stroke lengths, with proximity or limit switches, can be provided with all actuators. Potentiometer/ encoder for control. Sliding mechanical or electronic power cut off for overload protection is a standard for all actuators. Modular design and manufacture of VIKAS actuators enable assembly to all common technical specifications and customers choices, engineered to meet your performance needs with installation and after sales service. Applications Applications are endless in all industries wherever an equipment function can be effected by a linear movement and positioning of a load. With suitable links, rotary movement can be performed as in the case of butterfly valve. Measurable process parameters such as pressure, weight, temperature, humidity can also be used for automatic control for actuator positioning. Linear actuator have wide uses in cement, fertilizer chemical, sugar, pharmaceutical, iron and steel, mining and other industries. They are used for actuating and positioning slide gates, diverter gates, conveyor gates, two way flaps, chut gates, dampers, multi louvre dampers, wsitch points (rails), signalling systems, blast furnace cover, coke quenching car, tilting furnace, ladle or fundish preheaters, coke wharf gates, safety flaps, airdoor, loading funnels, butterfly valves, dish antennae and radar control, robotic applications and many others.
