'''ATEX Actuators''' are approved for use in potentially explosive environments. They are based upon a unique design that integrates a highly efficient planetary roller screw mechanism with a high torque servomotor in a single self-contained package. The roller screw outperforms rival ball screws by a factor of 15, in terms of travel life and load carrying capacity. It consists of multiple threaded rollers assembled in a planetary arrangement around a threaded shaft. This highly robust design is designed to provide reliable and precise operation over thousands of hours. | '''ATEX Actuators''' are approved for use in potentially explosive environments.

The combination of the planetary roller screw and servomotor produces an all-electric actuator which is extremely compact, yet delivers similar performance to hydraulic actuators in terms of force (907 Kilograms max) and torque capability, while surpassing them in speed (up to 635mm/s), efficiency, positioning performance, operating life and environmental impact. | The combination of the planetary roller screw and servomotor produces an all-electric actuator which is extremely compact, yet delivers similar performance to hydraulic actuators in terms of force (907 Kilograms max) and torque capability, while surpassing them in speed (up to 635mm/s), efficiency, positioning performance, operating life and environmental impact. | ||
ATEX Actuators offers a unique combination of high speed, performance and accuracy in a compact package, plus the flexibility of compatibility with almost any resolver- based servo amplifier. | ATEX Actuators offers a unique combination of high speed, performance and accuracy in a compact package, plus the flexibility of compatibility with almost any resolver- based servo amplifier. | ||
