THK's Compact Type SKR Actuator with Caged Technology now
Available in Smaller Sizes
Schaumburg, IL - (August 30, 2004) THK's high-speed Type
SKR Actuator is now available in two new smaller sizes of
20mm and 26mm. With the Type SKR, customers can experience
the benefits of both THK's Caged Technology Ball Screw and
Caged Ball LM Guide Technology in one high-speed actuator.
Designed for high speed and accuracy, THK's SKR Actuator
has positioning accuracies of 0.020mm, overall rail lengths
from 159(SKR20)/220(SKR26)mm to 259(SKR20)/370(SKR26)mm,
and stroke ranges of 41.5(SKR20)/69(SKR26)mm to 141.5(SKR20)/219(SKR26)mm.
Engineered into the Type SKR, patented THK Caged Technology
employs a synthetic resin cage with a patented curvature
that cradles each ball and separates it from the next. The
spaces between the rolling elements retain grease and act
as a lubrication system for long-term, maintenance-free operation.
Caged Technology benefits also include high accuracy, high-speed
operation, smooth movement, low noise and low dust generation.
The Type SKR is equipped with a ball screw QZ lubricator
to further ensure long-term maintenance free operation. The
Type SKR is easy to assemble, precision-engineered, rigid
and available in new wider range of sizes.
The overwhelming success of THK's caged technology has propelled
the expansion of caged technology throughout the product line.
THK is also expanding their product offering to include larger
and smaller sizes as well as new materials and technology to
achieve superior results in the most demanding applications.
