October 7, 2013 - Thomson introduces Max Jac heavy-duty linear actuator that delivers reliable and virtually maintenance free operation while maintaining accuracy in the harshest application conditions. The IP69K rated Max Jac has a stainless steel adapter and extension tubes to help prevent leakage. Additionally, a non-contact feedback signal assures accuracy over time and eliminates the need for re-calibration. The Max Jac has been subjected to rigorous testing and was proven to withstand:
- 500 hours of salt spray
- exposure to aggressive substances such as fertilizers, acid, oil, grease and cleaning agents
- rigorous vibration testing
- continuous operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C
The Max Jac can be custom designed by Thomson engineers to fit the widest possible range of application needs. It comes with the option of an analogue or digital encoder output, as well as self-locking worm screw or ball screw models to accommodate the demands of the specific application.
