FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

01

What’s the difference between a ball screw, belt, and rack & pinion actuator?

Ball screw modules offer high precision and rigidity for accurate positioning. 

Belt modules are ideal for high-speed, long-travel motion. 

Rack & pinion modules handle heavy loads and extra-long strokes.

02

How do I select the right linear module?

Selection depends on load, travel distance, speed, installation direction, and precision requirements. Our engineers can assist with model selection if you share your application data.

03

Can the module be mounted vertically?

 Yes, but vertical installation requires a brake motor or mechanical lock to prevent gravity drop.

04

What is the repeat positioning accuracy?

Ball screw type: ±0.01 mm; Belt type: ±0.05 mm; Rack & pinion type: ±0.1 mm.

05

Do the modules require maintenance?

Yes. Apply grease every 500 operating hours or 3 months and keep the guideways clean.

06

Which motor brands are compatible?

 Compatible with Delta, Mitsubishi, Panasonic,Yaskawa, Inovance, and most standard servo motors.

07

Can you provide custom stroke or dust-proof options?

Yes. Customized stroke lengths, dust covers, and mounting interfaces are available upon request.

08

What is a clean room belt driven linear actuator?

A clean room belt driven linear actuator is a linear motion module that uses a timing belt and linear guide structure to move a carriage along a straight axis. The MTG Series is designed for clean room and precision automation applications requiring high speed, long stroke, low noise and stable operation.

09

What is the delivery lead time?

Standard models: 7–15 days. Customized models: depends on machining requirements.

010

What is the difference between a belt driven linear actuator and a ball screw linear actuator?

A belt driven linear actuator is usually better for high-speed and long-stroke motion, while a ball screw linear actuator is better for high thrust, high rigidity and precise positioning. MTG Series is recommended when speed, stroke length and clean room compatibility are more important.

011

What applications are suitable for the MTG belt linear actuator?

MTG belt linear actuators are suitable for clean room automation, battery production, electronics assembly, TFT-LCD handling, medical equipment, pick-and-place systems, conveyor transfer and gantry linear robot applications.

012

Can the MTG Series be used as a single linear axis or in a multi-axis linear robot?

Yes. The MTG Series can be used as a single linear axis or integrated into XY, XYZ and gantry linear robot systems according to load, stroke, speed and installation requirements.
