IMT Series Electric Cylinders / Linear Actuators

The IMT Advantage

Standard compatibility, precise electric motion

The IMT Series combines the connection and mounting principles of pneumatic cylinders with precise electromechanical motion. This simplifies the transition to electric motion without requiring a fundamental redesign of the existing machine.

01

ISO 15552 mounting standard

Widely used industrial dimensions enable easy integration into both new and existing machinery.

02

Precision ball screw technology

Converts motor rotation into efficient, controlled and highly precise linear motion.

03

High positioning accuracy

Provides stable motion and high repeatability throughout recurring production cycles.

04

An easy alternative to pneumatic cylinders

Mounting compatibility simplifies the transition to precise servo-controlled motion.

05

Anti-rotation piston rod

Maintains load orientation and supports stable process and mechanical connections.

06

Flexible motor integration

Can operate with different servo or stepper motors according to the application's speed, force and control requirements.

Application-Specific Options

Standard platform, configurable solution

The IMT platform combines the integration benefits of a standard product family with application-specific mechanical and motor options.

Correct Configuration

Five Essentials for IMT Selection

The correct frame, ball screw and motor combination is not determined by maximum force alone. All operating conditions of the application must be evaluated together.

01Load and forcePush, pull and any non-axial loads

02StrokeWorking travel and required safety allowance

03Speed and accelerationCycle time and motion profile

04Duty cycleCycles per hour, daily operating time and expected service life

05Motor and environmentMotor brand, mounting arrangement and protection requirements
