The Hayden Kerk IDEA Size 23 non-captive linear unit is RoHS compliant and combines high-output force, rotary to linear motion, stepper drive and programmable control in one integrated package. Linear travel per step ranges from 0.000125” (0.0031mm) to 0.005” (0.127mm) and output force up to 200 lbf (890N).
The IDEA programmable linear actuator is fully programmable through its graphic interface, and the actuator is available up to 20” stroke length with various screw pitches allowing very fine resolution.
Programming software allows troubleshooting through line-by-line or multiple-line program execution using the interactive debug feature, and inputs and outputs can be simulated in software before connecting actual I/O hardware.
The IDEA programmable linear actuator runs on a single supply voltage of 12 to 75 VDC, 3.85A rms max rated current per phase with a 30% boost current capability for ramping, and 8 general purpose I/O. Inputs are rated for 5 to 24 VDC, 4mA max per input, and the outputs are open collector, 5 to 24 VDC, 200mA maximum per output.
