MDC-R6S

The MDC-R6S is a belt-driven linear actuator designed for precision motion in industrial automation environments. Featuring a reinforced timing belt and rigid aluminum extrusion, it delivers smooth, accurate travel across extended lengths and high speeds. Its modular design supports multiple motor and gearbox mounting configurations, allowing for flexible integration into custom multi-axis systems. Built with durable aluminum and steel components, the MDC-R6S offers consistent performance, minimal maintenance, and long-term reliability in demanding applications.

  • Dual Cart Single Axis Belt Actuator.
  • User defined Strokes.
  • Mounting flexibility in any orientation.
  • Extruded aluminum actuator body with T-slots for ease of mounting.
  • Easy to adjust belt tensioner.
  • One piece machined and stress proof shafted pulley.
  • Zero backlash belt to pulley design.
  • Multiple Carts Available upon Request.
  • Can be Made into a centering actuator.
  • Corrosion resistant components.
  • Washdown Duty or Water- Resistant Options upon request.
