SMAC’s new Low Cost Linear Actuator brings stiff price competition to pneumatic actuators
SMAC's new LCL (Low Cost Linear) Actuator brings stiff price competition to pneumatic actuators.
SMAC announces a new low cost actuator series that brings actuator list price to $300 or less.
SMAC's design features:
• SMAC's patent pending Printed Coil technology with integrated encoder reader head.
• Precision laser cut housing and end caps.
• IKO precision linear recirculating guides.
• Very strong Neo denium magnets.
• Strokes out to 200 mm.
• Acceleration of 100G
• Cycle rates of up to 2000 a minute.
• Cycle life >100M.
• Programmable Speed, position, and force.
• Ability to "Softland" and then push.
• A round Stainless steel cover option for IP requirements. (CDL option)

Bota Systems - The SensONE 6-axis force torque sensor for robots
Our Bota Systems force torque sensors, like the SensONE, are designed for collaborative and industrial robots. It enables human machine interaction, provides force, vision and inertia data and offers "plug and work" foll all platforms. The compact design is dustproof and water-resistant. The ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 mounting flange makes integrating the SensONE sensor with robots extremely easy.
No adapter is needed, only fasteners! The SensONE sensor is a one of its kind product and the best solution for force feedback applications and collaborative robots at its price. The SensONE is available in two communication options and includes software integration with TwinCAT, ROS, LabVIEW and MATLAB®.
