The Precision Linear Actuators (PLA) ranges are actuators designed for automation tasks in the industry or for the replacement of pneumatics or hydraulics wherever they may exist.
Micromech's Precision Linear Actuators (PLA) are designed for automation tasks or the replacement of pneumatics or hydraulics The Danaher Motion precision linear actuator range consists of two series of precision linear actuators: the black EC series in four sizes and the aluminium-coloured ECT series in two sizes

The EC actuators combines durability and ease of use with the largest selection of factory-engineered options available today.
They come in both acme and ball screw versions, in a large number of gear and motor combinations, as well as being designed to be compact but still manage high loads and survive harsh environments.
The highest performing precision linear actuators are the ECT series, designed for the most demanding application,s making them ideal when the maximum available performance and longest life cycle are required.
Precision-rolled ball screws provide smooth motion, accurate positioning and quiet operation.
The ECT series guarantees trouble-free operation in the most challenging operations and toughest applications.
One of the major advantages with the PLA actuators is that they come completely assembled, ready to run as soon as they are hooked up to a drive and a control.
A large range of mounting options and accessories are available, making it easier to perfect the actuator for the application.
The actuators arrive completely assembled and tested and are less expensive than they would be if individual components were purchased.
PLA actuators can get the linear motion application up and running faster, safer and cheaper than most other solutions.
Typical applications include loading and unloading, edge guide control, drilling, cutting, welding, pressing and clamping tasks in production equipment.
They are also commonly used for valve control in process and ventilation equipment and are also ideal where there is a high concentration of airborne contaminants.
