Parker ETH, High Force Electro Thrust Cylinder
The well-known series of ET electro-thrust cylinders, which is widely used in thousands of different applications was completely redesigned and enhanced.
- Unrivaled power density - high forces and small frame sizes
- Initiators / initiator lines can be hidden in the profile
- Optimized for safe handling and simple cleaning
- Greatly increased lifetime (up to factor 5)
- Reduced maintenance costs thanks to integrated relubricating hole in the cylinder flange
- Easy replacement due to pneumatic ISO flange norm (DIN ISO 15552:2005-12) conformity
- Anti-rotation device integrated
- Reduced noise emission
- All from one source
We offer the complete drive train: Drive controllers, motors and gearboxes matching the electro thrust cylinder
Typical fields of application:
- Packaging Machines
- Food Processing and Beverage
- Material handling and feed systems,
- As a servo cylinder in the wood and plastic working industry
- In the textile industry for tensioning / gripping textile fabrics
- As vertical actuators for loading machine tools
- In the automotive industry for transporting and feeding components
- Testing equipment and laboratory applications
- Valve and flap actuation
- Pressing
Technical characteristics:
For precise motion, positioning, setting and actuating, the electro thrust cylinder offers:
- High mechanic efficiency up to 90 %
- Strokes up to 1600 mm
- High traction/thrust force up to 25 100 N
- Repeatability up to ±0.03 mm
- Speed up to 1.7 m/s
- Toothed belt drive (for parallel motor mounting)
- Many different screw pitches for thrusts from 5 to 32 mm/rev.
- 3 different sizes (ETH032, ETH050, ETH080)
- Predefined standardized motor and gearbox flanges for simplified selection. The motors are available directly from Parker (all from one source).
- 3 different protection classes available:
