Machine Screw Actuators (Metric)

Duff-Norton Metric Actuators are manufactured to the same high quality stan-dards and include all of the same features and benefits as the standard line ofactuators while incorporating the following features:

  • Load Capacities in Tonnes
  • Mounting Dimensions in millimeters
  • Metric screw diameters with trapezoidal threads (machine screw actuators)
  • Metric shaft and keyway sizes per ISO recommended standards 
  • All metric fasteners on machine screw units
  • Metric bolt centers
  • Other sizes and models available, contact Duff-Norton for more information
         
Machine Screw Actuator Performance Specifications (Metric)
Performance Table Instructions
When reviewing any Duff-Norton Actuator Performance Specifications Table, as part of the process of selecting the best-suited actuator for your application, there are several important worm-gear ratios to consider.

Standard Ratio – is frequently chosen when higher speeds and efficiency ratings are desired.
Optional Ratio(s) – is frequently chosen when the application requires higher lifting capacities, lower speeds, or to ease the use of a handwheel.
Numeric Ratio – is frequently chosen for applications requiring fine adjustments, higher lifting capacities, lower speeds, the easy use of a handwheel, self locking applications, and also offers the benefit of an even number of worm input turns per inch of stroke.
