New Profile Linear Actuators Simplify Machine Building

29.04.2025

With the newly developed profile linear actuators made of aluminum profiles with 30 mm and 50 mm square cross-section, Ganter is simplifying the building of automated packaging systems, transport conveyors and handling systems. These robust profile linear actuators with friction bearings and low backlash are right at home anywhere that positioning and adjustment are required to account for various heights, widths and formats.

The carriages made of anodized aluminum can be positioned with a precision of 0.2 mm. The polyamide friction bearings provide a long service life with minimal backlash, while wedge-shaped side profiles guarantee perfectly secure clamping.

A continuous cover strip reliably protects the interior of the linear actuator from dirt, dust and other contaminants, ensuring frictionless operation over the long term – even under challenging conditions.

Depending on the available space, prevailing loads and applicable requirements, designers can choose between multiple variants of the profile linear actuators: the 30 mm cross-section for lighter applications and the 50 mm cross-section for all heavy duty tasks. It is also possible to choose between two different carriage lengths and whether two carriages move in opposite directions on the carrier profile cross-section.

Matching accessories, such as handwheels and mechanical or electronic position indicators, allow the elements to be adjusted quickly and precisely. For elaborate and complex adjustment tasks, multiple linear actuators can be combined using bevel gears and transfer units.

As is typical of Ganter, all options can be selected, taking into account the compatible accessories, from a thoroughly organized catalog to assemble a corresponding article number, which can then be ordered as usual. If you desire even greater convenience and need to know the weight, price and delivery time in advance or require CAD data for a linear actuator, the new online configurator is designed just for you. This makes it even easier to reliably assemble individual linear actuator configurations, offering a comprehensive overview of the configured version alongside the selected accessory options. Finally, you can place your order in the Ganter webshop directly from the configurator.
