Electric (and roller-screw) cylinder outputs extremely high force

July 1, 2015 By Lisa Eitel Leave a Comment

Now, Parker’s Electromechanical Automation Division sells a new XFC Series electric cylinder. It extends the performance range and (with the ETH product line) creates one of the most feature-rich and application-optimized liner-motion product lines available.

The XFC has an integrated roller screw with planetary rollers instead of the ball bearings used in ball-screw actuators. Planetary rollers provide more contact between the screw thread and the roller nut’s internal threads — which boosts load capacities, speeds, and shock-loading capabilities.

Six different XFC sizes can support thrust load to 80,000 lb. This plus an all-steel frame based on standard metric hydraulic cylinder construction makes for seamless migration from hydraulic to full electrometrical motion  … and cleaner and more energy-efficient and controllable motion.Parker-XFC-high-force-electric-actuator

XFC Extreme-Force Electric Cylinder features

· 6 frame sizes: 75, 90, 115, 140, 165 and 190 mm
