MCE

Mini electric cylinder MCE is a mini linear drive with a piston rod. By using an integrated precision ball screw drive, the rotary motion (rotation) of the drive shaft is converted to the linear motion (translation) of the piston rod with high mechanical efficiency and low internal friction.

A preassembled standard motor (in-line with a motor adapter and a coupling or in-parallel with a motor sidedrive and a timing belt) together with the standard drive, makes the system plug and play ready. Compact dimensions and optimally selected motor combinations cover a wide range of applications.

The aluminium cylinder profile includes T-slots on the bottom for fixing the electric cylinder, as well as side slots for clamping fixtures and magnetic field sensors.

Options, such as female piston rod end and extended piston rod, together with a wide range of accessories make this product highly flexible. There is also an option of the mini electric cylinder without the preassembled motor if an individual motor is required.

For applications, where higher resistance to lateral loads or torsional moments is required, a guiding unit GUC can be used. By using the guiding unit, which offers high precision guiding and positioning, the mini electric cylinders can easily be combined to the multi-axis systems.

Each MCE is optimally pre-lubricated and ready for a maintenance-free operating process.

Note!
All the data of the dynamic load capacities (ball screw drive) stated in the tables are theoretical without considering any safety factor. The safety factor depends on the application and its requested safety and service life.

We recommend a minimum dynamic safety factor of 5,0 or more. Please refer to the Technical Information document where calculation of the safety factor of the ball screw drive and how the applied load affects the service life are presented.

All dimensions are in mm. The scale of the drawings may not be equal.

Please see the attached Technical information document for further information and data.
