GSM & GSX Series Linear Actuators with Patented Integral Brushless Servo Motors
The original GS Series has been replaced by the GSX Series and GSM Series. Exlar continues to support the GS Series,
and full documentation and specifications are available. The GSM Series linear actuator is a cost effective solution
offering the standard capacity inverted screw technology with travel life 5 times the life of comparable ball screw
actuators. The GSM Series includes standard IP54 sealing, resulting in a longer lasting and more compact solution
compared to ball screw actuators. The GSX Series linear actuator is suitable for just about any environment or application.
This series features Exlar's high capacity inverted roller screw technology, providing travel life 15 times that
of a comparable ball screw actuator. The GSX Series includes IP65 sealing, and these actuators come ported for air
cooling or oil cooling. This fully integrated unit delivers higher continuous motor torque than conventional wound motors, and has a much
longer working life than a ball screw system. Designed for Closed Loop Servo Systems, position feedback can be accomplished by resolver,
encoder, or internal linear position sensor. Exlar motors with T-LAM Technology offers maximum motor performance with UL approval and CE
compliance. The GSX's roller screw mechanism can handle heavier loads at higher speeds and is designed to withstand exposure to out side
contaminants. GSX actuators can be lubricated with either grease or recirculated oil, specify when ordering. Special OEM lubricants are
also available. GSX actuators are available in 5 frame styles (2"-7") and several mounting styles. Custom mounting styles can also be ordered.
Optional features include; anti-rotate mechanism, pre-loaded follower, electric brake, and external end switches.
