MSA-SB7 Belt Drive

The MSA-SB7 Belt Drive is a compact linear actuator designed for precision motion control in light-duty industrial automation and gantry systems. It features an extruded aluminum body with T-slots for flexible mounting and a zero-backlash belt-to-pulley system for smooth, accurate positioning. The MSA-SB7 supports user-defined stroke lengths up to 5,610 mm, speeds up to 3,810 mm/s, and repeatability of ±0.05 mm. Corrosion-resistant components and optional washdown-duty or water-resistant configurations ensure reliable performance in demanding environments.

  • Single Axis Belt Drive.
  • 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.
