Rod Style Actuators

The MCSE Series incorporates guides to provide a load carrying capability

Universal Series actuators are designed to easily drop into automation applications.  They are compact and feature an aluminum extruded cylinder design with industry standard T-slots for quick mounting.

Tac LS actuators are ideal for long stroke applications with high thrust loads and faster velocities.  They are constructed with aluminum housing and chrome plated heavy wall thickness piston rods and steel/bronze anti-rotation components.

• IP69K rated for high-pressure, high-temperature washdown.
• Designed for food-grade applications, severe environments, or caustic wash-down conditions. 
• 316 stainless steel contoured exterior. 
• Compact actuator with thrust up to 2,000 lbf.
• Velocity up to 40 in/sec, stroke up to 24 inches.

• Eliminator SS series actuators provide the ideal solution for applications that demand high thrust and high speed.  The SS series handles thrusts up to 2,000lbf and speeds up to 40 inches per second.  They incorporate steel/bronze anti-rotation along with a sealed chamber design with purge provision.

PNCE Cost Effective, Moderate duty ball screw actuators are your standard actuators for moderate strokes and moderate speeds.  They are available in standard and CR versions with several accessories for mounting.

The HD & HDL series feature an all steel construction to provide a strong, durable and precise solution for heavy duty linear actuation.  They feature anti-rotation, velocities up to 23 inches per second, stroke lengths up to 48 inches, lead accuracies up to .0005 inches per foot, zero backlash and integrated load cell options.

The SP & SPL series actuators feature the same characteristics of the HD & HDL PLUS an all 316 Stainless Steel construction for caustic IP69k washdown requirements.

The SD series Super Duty actuators feature steel construction and provide strong, durable, and precise linear motion with capacities up to 100,000 lbs.  They feature a durable anti-rotation devise, velocities up to 12 inches per second, multiple mounting configurations, limit switches and a sealed chamber design with purge provision.

 Joyce integrated actuators lift and precisely position up to one ton. Requiring only electric power, Joyce integrated linear actuators may be used in place of hydraulic cylinders, eliminating the cost and potential for leaks associated with hydraulic systems. Translating tube (TT) integrated linear actuators are well suited for use in industrial environments where protection of the lifting screw mechanism and low maintenance is desired. Traveling nut (TN) integrated linear actuators are best suited for use in environments that are relatively clean and free of dust. 

Joyce multipurpose actuators (MA) are compact, versatile and designed to lift dynamic loads ranging from 500N (112 pounds) to 7000N (1574 pounds) and at travel speeds up to 47 mm/sec (111 in/min). Each 120 VAC or 12 VDC linear actuator is equipped with a potentiometer and preset limit switches, and offers an IP65 rating that qualifies them for many wash-down and outdoor duty applications. A selection of AC and DC models is available to meet your specific requirements.

Compatible controls for both AC and DC Multipurpose Actuators are available from Joyce.

Also called an electric actuator, an electric cylinder is a device that uses electricity to create linear motion for numerous applications. Industries that depend on automation, such as manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and product packaging, use electric cylinders to push or pull something in a straight line.

Joyce/Dayton Corp. is a premier manufacturer of electric cylinders, and we have a long history of designing high-quality motion control solutions for modern industries worldwide. Read on to learn more about the common types of electric cylinders, their applications, and their benefits.
