FAQs: Actuators Components for Automation Applications

Actuators are components of automation that help convert energy into controlled motion which are then used in positioning systems, automated equipment, claws, and other systems. Examples are pneumatic cylinder barrels with honed bores for air-powered linear motion, piston rods, electric linear actuators with housings that have ball screws and motors, bodies of rotary actuators for limited-angle motion, hydraulic cylinders which go up to 10,000 Newtons of force, motor mounted hydraulic flanges, gripper fingers and jaws, lead screws, and custom components like multi-axis actuators with integrated position sensors.

Because of their lightweight construction, Aluminum 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 reduces the moving mass by 60 percent which makes higher acceleration possible, outstanding machinability of integrated features, strength which is adequate for 10 bar pressure pneumatic applications, and natural corrosion resistance. Steel 4140 and 1045 gives maximum strength for high-force hydraulic actuators to 350 bar pressure, wear resistance on the sliding surfaces, through-hardening capability, and being cost-effective. For cleanrooms and food processing, stainless steel 303 and 316 gives corrosion resistance, strength which is adequate after heat treatment, and washdown compatibility. For pneumatic fittings, brass C36000 gives corrosion resistance, self-lubricating properties for bushings, and excellent machinability.

Standard pneumatic cylinder barrels and piston rods take 10-15 business days, which include turning, honing or grinding, and finishing. complex electric actuators with integrated features take 4-5 weeks. Prototype components can be done in 7-10 days to rapidly assemble and test the motion systems.

We provide comprehensive finishing solutions tailored to aerospace requirements:
Anodizing (Type II and Type III)
Passivation for corrosion resistance
Precision polishing for aerodynamic surfaces
Custom protective coatings and thermal barriers

Yes. Everything comes with complete material traceability and adheres to ISO 9001 standards for dimensional verification, surface finish measurement, straightness documentation, and motion control components standards compliance. These standards require dependable force transmission of 10 to 10,000 Newtons, positioning repeatability within 0.1 millimeters, and a stroke count exceeding 1 million

Yes, we provide rapid prototyping to verify fit and test assembly, with same-day CAD-to-part capability available for critical projects. For custom automation cells and research platforms, we perform low-volume production of 20 to 500 brackets. For standardized robot models, we perform high-volume production of thousands to tens of thousands of brackets annually, incorporating complete dimensional inspection, flatness verification, and material certifications.

Bore tolerances of the cylinder with ±0.001 inches and also with piston fit and seal integrity. piston rod diameter with ±0.0002 inches on ground surfaces, straightness with 0.0005 inches per foot on piston rods to prevent binding, surface finish of 0.2 Ra microns on honed cylinder bores to minimize friction, seal grooves of ±0.003 inches, mount interfaces ±0.005 inches and that control alignment are all indicative.
