Product Update
Pig Tail Cables Now Standard!
The DS now comes with a pig tail cable making it a snap to change the length of your MPG cable. Standard MPG cable lengths are 3 meters and 5 meters.
|
Application Note:
Although primarily sold as single-axis solutions, the DS is also available as a 2-axis model known as DS Systems.

Product Description
|
The DS Series is an electromechanical alternative to air
cylinders. The Series is comparable in size and price, but it offers
capabilities that pneumatic air cylinders can't match, including:
- Multiple positioning
- Acceleration/deceleration programmability
- Speed setting programmability
- Programmable control

Series Features
|
DS Series actuators are available as "Slider"
or "Arm" types. The Slider Type is more of a  traditional design, with the slider moving smoothly
and programmable within the given stroke length. The Arm Type features a
bar that extends and retracts from the actuator's body and is used
primarily as a vertical axis. Both models are available in 40mm, 50mm, and
58mm widths.
Depending on ballscrew lead, DS Series actuators are
available in high-, medium- and low-speed models.
The DS Series is also available in various 2-axis
configurations called "DS Systems". Due to moment load
constraints, 3-axis systems are not possible with the DS, but many have
found a cost-effective and powerful solution in the 2-axis DS
System.
Options include:
- Magnetic Brake
- AQ Seal Long-Term Lubrication

Controller Features
|
When it comes to compact design, overall size and
price/performance, nothing compares with the DS-S-C1 single axis
controller. Its features are similar to our main line of SEL Controllers and include:
- CPU
- Driver
- User I/O
- External 24V DC power supply
- Memory for 1,000 steps of programming
- Positioning for up to 500 points
- 15 user inputs (standard)
- 6 user outputs (standard)
The DS Series is also now available with interpolated motion, using the X-SEL controller.
This SEL controller may also control the 2-axis DS Systems.

Actuator Specifications
|
The DS Series Slider Type design incorporates the same patented integrated motor principles as our IS Series, but at a lower wattage.
- Motor: 20W or 30W AC servo motor
w/incremental optical encoder
- Ballscrew Diameter: 10mm, 8mm
- Ballscrew Lead: 12mm, 6mm, 3mm; 10mm,
5mm, 2.5mm
- Frame Material: Now using aluminum
instead of steel to lower weight and length.
