Tolomatic B3W Rodless Belt-Drive Electric Actuator for Long-Life Linear Motion

Tolomatic B3W Rodless Belt-Drive Electric Actuator for Long-Life Linear Motion

Tolomatic B3W Rodless Belt-Drive Electric Actuator for Long-Life Linear Motion

The Tolomatic B3W Rodless Belt-Drive Electric Actuator is designed for applications that need durable, efficient, and high-performance linear motion. Available through Flow Products, the B3W offers large bending moment capacity and uses an integral recirculating ball bearing guidance system for long service life.

For applications involving conveyors, inspection systems, packaging equipment, sorting, camera positioning, test stations, and material handling, the B3W provides a flexible electric actuator platform.

Designed for Strength and Durability

The B3W rodless actuator is built to handle demanding linear motion applications. Its recirculating ball bearing guidance system provides smooth performance, high efficiency, and durable operation. The system also helps support loads and bending moments that may be difficult for lighter-duty actuator designs.

With belt-drive technology, the B3W is well suited for applications requiring longer strokes, fast movement, or repeated positioning across a linear travel path.
