Roller Screw versus Ball Screw Actuators
In the ever-evolving field of engineering, roller screw technology has become a significant force in linear electric actuator motion control....
ADE electro mechanical actuators are deployed as drive for the lock paddles in the lock gates of Sluice Evergem:
The lock complex Evergem consists of two locks in the Belgian municipality of Evergem. The locks are used for passing inland vessels between the port of Gent, De Westerschelde, the Gent-Brugge canal and other waterways. A large part of the inland shipping goes through the Gent-Terneuzen canal, linking the port of Gent with the Westerschelde and the North Sea.
6 lock gates
3 lock paddles per lock gate
2 ADE electro mechanical actuators per lock paddle.
ADE Type MS-80, stroke 1610 mm
Maximal tractive power 150kN
Supplied with AUMA drives
Special execution with Tandler spiral bevel gearboxes and Jakob RVS line shaft couplings
We supply slewing ring bearings, oscillating mountings, tensioner devices from stock and we also have spiral bevel gearboxes, servo gears and electromechanical actuators in our delivery program.
In addition we also select and offer the right components and systems for motion control solutions, such as servo gear motors, linear servo actuators and complete XYZ cartesian systems.
