GSA | Linear Slide Actuators

Tolomatic GSA Linear Slide Actuators combine an electric rod actuator with guide rods, mounting blocks and bearings.
A complete selection of sizes, options and system components are available. The GSA Linear Slide Actuator offers high performance, dependability and mounting flexibility for an extensive range of applications.
There are four different stroke lengths available as standard: 18", 24", 30" and 36" with thrust forces up to 950 lbf (4.2 kN).
They feature a wide tooling plate for end effector mounting and come with a choice of linear ball, or composite bearings with internal lubrication of guide rods for increased bearing life. Oversized guide rod diameters are available for increased rigidity and lower deflection.

Switches

RSA, RSX and GSA products offer a wide range of sensing choices.
There are twelve standard switch choices: reed, solid state PNP (sourcing) or solid state NPN (sinking); in normally open or normally closed; with flying leads or quick-disconnect. Commonly used for end-of-stroke positioning, these switches allow installation anywhere along the entire actuator length. The internal magnet is a standard feature.

Switches can be installed in the field at any time. Switches contain reverse polarity protection. Solid state QD cables are shielded and all switches are CE rated, RoHS compliant. Switches feature bright red or yellow LED signal indicators; solid state switches also have green LED power indicators.
