Belt driven linear actuators for Clean Rooms

The CLEAN ROOM SYSTEM units are linear actuators with belt driven transmission and are specifically designed for Clean Room applications.

The system prevents particles from being discharged in the environment where the linear unit is located. This has been achieved by using a special straight seal that closes the horizontal opening where the slider moves, as well as by the operation of a 0.8 vacuum pump connected to 2 vacuum pipes located inside the drive head and the idle head. The system allows vacuum to be generated inside the unit so that any particles released when the system is operating are sucked towards the air filtration areas. Clean Room System linear actuators components are all made of stainless steel or undergo special treatments ensuring a low particle release. The lubricants of all bearings and linear rails are special lubricants designed for use in CLEAN ROOMS or in VACUUM environments.

If the system is used in dirty environments, the CLEAN ROOM SYSTEM linear units can be pressurized to 0.8 bar to prevent any outside particles from negatively affecting its smooth operation. Main fields of application for Clean Room System linear units:

• Semiconductors
• Medical

Key Features

• High dynamics: V=7 m/s, A= 20 m/s2
• Clean room class ISO 3
• Low particles emissions thanks to vacuum system
• Wide range of anticorrosion surface treatments
• High repeatability accuracy: ±0,05 mm

A LINAK control is the unit you use to control the movements of a LINAK actuator system. Use the control to decide if the actuator or lifting column should  initiate movement. For LINAK actuator systems, there is a variety of control types for various applications. Some come as handsets, some as footswitches,while other applications come with PC/Mac control software or even a mobile device app, allowing you to use your tablet or smartphone as a handset control.

LINAK control boxes are the link between actuators (linear, dual or lifting columns) and the related controls used to administer their adjustment.
Control boxes are a broad family of intelligent hubs allowing adjustment of various actuator applications.
From hospitals and offices to waste water facilities, industrial automation, and heavy-duty machinery within agriculture and construction.
They all benefit from actuator systems or solutions with a LINAK control box.
