Posted: April 08, 2016Estimating how long a piece of equipment will last in an application is critical information in the specification process. This step-by-step guide examines how to estimate the life of an electric actuator, utilizing ball or roller screw technology, in applications that require constant or varying (changing) loads.
In addition, you will learn how to calculate life in units of time (days, years, etc.) and how to compare the expected life of two different solutions.

When you need to specify a linear actuator, you want to do it right. Some basic decisions come first. Like electric or pneumatic. See Tolomatic’s recent blogpost for an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of pneumatic versus electric linear actuators.
If electric is selected, you’ll next need to decide if a rod or rodless linear actuator is the best choice. Tolomatic offers both types of electric linear actuator, so you can count on us for motion control advice and application expertise.Selection tips

The lead screw is an essential component in many electric linear actuators. When selecting the type of lead screw a linear actuator should have, you need to strike a balance between purchase price and performance characteristics to get full value.

Motion system designers often need to evaluate competing components to select the best one for an application. For linear actuators and other motion system components, the decision generally comes down to which product will provide the longest service life given the specifications of the project.
Manufacturers give you performance data which can serve as guidelines for componenselection and use. Keep in mind, though, this information is for the individual component only and may not relate directly to the configuration and conditions of your application.
When you’re comparing data from different manufacturers, be sure you’re comparing apples to apples. For linear actuators you may need to normalize the data of all the rolling elements (such as the ball screw or roller...

A New White Paper from Tolomatic . Published January 28, 2014
Is your actuator drive system subjected to harsh factory conditions that include dust, moisture, heat or vibration? If so, then chances are electrical noise is the culprit that can disrupt actuator signal controls, cause erratic motion, or in some cases, complete system failure if left unchecked.
Although system noise can never be completely eliminated, Tolomatic’s new white paper will help you identify and minimize the causes of electrical noise in drive...Categories: Technical Support
