    PBC Linear’s New Line of Linear Actuators Excelling in Multiple Industries

    A year after being introduced, PBC Linear’s new line of Linear Actuator Technology (LAT) has been successfully implemented in several different industries worldwide. From medical and clean room applications to food processing and packaging—PBC Linear’s actuator line can be used to lower production time and costs virtually everywhere linear motion is applied. Simultaneously milled using PBC Linear’s patent-pending SIMO technology, these actuators offer consistent high precision at no added cost!

    Sealed against contamination, the PL and MT series actuators can be utilized in a wide array of environments. Recently, both actuator designs have been used heavily in several different clean room applications. The PL series ball-screw driven linear actuator has been integrated with newly available Integral V™ Technology (IVT) to provide accurate linear motion for both digital imagers and printers. With this new combination of LAT and IVT, PBC Linear has been able to promote a low cost solution to high precision.

    Assembled in an XYZ gantry, the MT series belt-driven linear actuator found success in lab equipment. Used as a high precision pick and place machine, this gantry greatly reduced the time for medical testing and diagnosis. As a result of the MT series self-contained system design and flush mounting capabilities, this linear actuator has been successful in many industries. Other applications of how the diverse MT series has been utilized include a lifting system for high load capacity boxes, a horizontally installed precision glue gun, and CNC milling systems.

    Newly added to the LAT family is the MLA mini-actuator. Its lightweight design, unique one piece carriage, and t-slots make installation a breeze. Created for compact spaces, the MLA actuator comes available with precise positioning, allowing for fast and accurate linear motion. Able to carry heavier loads at higher speeds than the competition, the MLA actuator is designed to be the go-to solution for compact linear motion. Available with a wide variety of optional mounting components and two profile rails, the MLA actuator is a solution to several different applications.

    Each actuator in the LAT family will be precision machined with PBC Linear’s newly developed SIMO (Simultaneous Integrated Milling Operation) machine. This process provides PBC Linear products with a synchronized, concurrently milled qualified edge for guaranteed surface quality and sizes within 0.001’’—making PBC Linear more accurate by leaps and bounds over the competition.

    what's the point of coming with new products and not have any prices on the site? besides if I can't buy directly from the manufacturer why bother calling the company. the way this company works is thru distributors.

    Good morning,

    First of all thank you for your incite and we regret to here about your frustration. To answer some of your questions and concerns, I think it would be best to take this a step at a time.

    what's the point of coming with new products and not have any prices on the site?

    PBC Linear comes out with new products to serve what we believe is an arrising need an a specific industry. Our job is to solve linear motion problems, and there is not one universal answer for every problem. Price--though it is a compelling factor in the buying decision of a product--is not listed to the variance and customization. This also reflects why no other company in our industry post prices on their websites.

    if I can't buy directly from the manufacturer why bother calling the company?


    PBC Linear supports both direct buying and distributor buying. We have a very knowledgeable staff of application engineers who are ready to take calls on a number of different questions and concerns when designing a system. They can make recommendations on which of our products to use and can set you up with the products over the phone.

    I hope this has answered your questions, please feel free to contact one of our customer service representatives or an application engineer if you have any further questions.

    Thank you
