VERSATILE. SCALABLE. SIMPLE.
The MSA-NBC Belt Driven Actuator is a compact linear actuator designed for precision motion in light-duty industrial automation and gantry applications. It features an extruded aluminum body with T-slots for flexible mounting and a zero-backlash belt-to-pulley system for smooth, accurate operation. The MSA-NBC supports user-defined stroke lengths up to 3,810 mm, speeds up to 1,905 mm/s, and repeatability of ±0.05 mm. Corrosion-resistant components and optional washdown-duty or water-resistant configurations ensure dependable performance in demanding environments.
