Version: 1.2

Component
Task
Supplied by or available from PI
Mechanical structure
Ensures among other things the
secure fixation of the actuator and
thus a high repeatability.
Only mounting nut (for mechanical
connection) included in the scope of
delivery of the actuator.
Mechanical coupling
Establishes the connection between
the actuator and the load (pusher
with a separate end piece,
depending on the model).
Also in case exchangeable parts can
be used, all options are included in
the scope of delivery of the actuator
(e.g. end pieces).
Load
Part to be driven. This is to be
moved in your application.
-
If a motor controller card is used, the "controller" component and the connection
between the peripheral control equipment and the controller ("cable") are physically
inside of the PC.
3.2 Features and Applications
The motorized precision drives of the M-235 series are linear actuators with travel
ranges of 20 mm or 50 mm. They stand out thanks to their high positioning resolution,
load capacity, velocity and lifetime in industrial applications. Their design with a low-
friction and backlash-free ball screw enables loads of up to 120 N to be moved with
minimum incremental motions of up to 100 nm (M-235.xxG and M-235.xxS models) or
500 nm (M-235.xxD models). The non-rotating end piece avoids wobbles and
supports very uniform motions.
Integrated limit and reference point switches, plus line drivers enable the simple
installation in automation solutions and protect the mechanical system of the actuator.
3.3 Model Overview
Ten standard versions of the M-235 are available. All models are high-performance
linear actuators with a ball screw. They differ in terms of:
Travel range
Drive type
