Electromechanical Actuators

Diakont’s state-of-the-art DA electromechanical actuators (EMAs) feature precision-machined roller screws integrated with permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) to provide exceptional power, accuracy, and reliability in a compact form factor. Known for long life, rugged construction and minimal maintenance, integrated roller screw actuators are ideal for demanding applications such as robotic weld guns, servo presses, injection moulding machines, factory automation and discrete manufacturing applications.

Diakont DA-Series actuators deliver lead accuracy of 0.001 in/ft along with a nominal backlash of 0.004 in (with zero-backlash preloaded options available as an option). They replace hydraulic and pneumatic actuators and are compatible with various third party servo drives and amplifiers. Diakont actuators are ruggedised for reliable operation in harsh environmental conditions. They withstand temperature extremes (-40ºC to +100ºC), shock and vibration, and are available with IP ratings for specialty applications. Diakont offers a broad range of standard actuators which suit most requirements; however they are designed so that they are easily customised to suit specific requirements.
