Product overview
The GMA-BL Actuator Controller consists of a linear actuator and
motor control electronics attached to the actuator. The actuator
moves loads in a translational fashion. The rotational movement
of the brushless DC motor is reduced by a synchronous belt
pulley and gears and then transmitted to a ball screw which
transforms the rotational movement into linear movement.
The actuator controller is designed for continuous use. The
actuator controller has two sensor inputs, a remote operator
interface, and parallel inputs and outputs for remote control and
alarms. The actuator controller is designed to mount into a web
guiding structure and control the position of the web by
monitoring the web position with sensors mounted on the web
path.
The actuator controller is available in a wide variety of reduction
ratios and strokes and has coupling connection options with
flanges, clevis head, or rod end heads to easily adapt to the
customer’s system. In addition to the controller mounted to the
actuator, the controller can be remote mounted from the actuator
within a few centimeters to allow fitting in applications with tight
spaces. Each actuator controller comes with an integrated servo
center transducer.
The actuator controller works with most Fife sensors.
