Duff-Norton Linear Actuators

Duff-Norton linear actuators offer a packaged solution to your motion requirements. The integration of the linear actuator and motor simplifies the process of specifying and purchasing components for your motion system.
Duff-Norton linear actuators offer several advantages over hydraulic cylinders when low maintenance, installation, and operating costs and, environmental impact are considerations.
Regardless of how simple your requirements or how complex, Duff-Norton electromechanical industrial linear actuators can be customized to suit your application.
Acme Screw Jack
Screw Jacks - 1/4 to 350 Ton
1/4 to 350 ton capacity. Acme screw jacks offer positive mechanical action, precise positioning, and uniform lifting speeds. Standard configurations include upright or inverted units with translating or rotating lifting screws, and top plate, threaded, or clevis ends.
Duff-Norton offers a complete line of both standard and custom engineered machine screw actuators for applications up to 350 tons.
- Machine Screw Actuators can be controlled accurately for positioning within thousandths of one inch.
- Models featuring higher gear ratios are inherently load holding as long as the actuator is not subject to vibration
- Since many actuators feature the same gear ratios different capacities can be used in the same application to lift unevenly distributed loads with uniform speeds.
- All actuators are designed and built to be positive acting, for accurate response to motive power.
