Rigid chain mechanical actuator - Zip Chain Actuator

Rigid chain mechanical actuator - Zip Chain Actuator
Tsubakimoto Chain Tsubakis Zip Chain Actuator effectively utilizes Tsubakis unique Zip Chain to directly transmit thrust. The Tsubaki Zip Chain is the result of nearly a century of manufacturing expertise, and is composed of two chains that come together like a zipper and lock to form a single column. Features include:

*Compact
Tsubaki Zip Chain Actuators require a smaller installation space compared to other linear actuators, which can contribute to efforts to downsize operations. The interlocked chains form a single column to push and pull, while chains that are not engaged can be compactly housed in the plastic case, allowing for installation in tighter spaces.
*High speed
Capable of high speed operation compared to screw actuators and compressed air/hydraulic cylinders. (Max. 1,000 mm/sec)
*Eco-friendly
Power consumption is less than 1/30th compared to compressed air/hydraulic cylinders*. The unit achieves nearly 90% efficiency when used in combination with dedicated sprockets*.
(Results may vary with usage conditions and lubrication.)
*Multi-point stopping
The Zip Chain Actuator can be stopped at any desire position along its stroke range by controlling input rotation.
*Freedom of installation
Can be installed for vertical lifting, horizontal pushing, and vertical hanging.

You will find Zip Chain Actuators used in changing pallet orientation, stacking stockers, trolley lifting and lowering, pallet lifting and transferring, and a variety of other applications.
