High force operation
31 October 2013
With the introduction of the new ETH100, Parker Hannifin, has extended its range of High Force Electro Thrust Cylinders.

The ETH100 combines the advantages of hydraulics with those of electronics, benefitting from a rugged design and the resulting long service life. Typical applications include material forming and press applications, food processing and packaging machinery, industrial automation and other applications where users are looking for an energy saving electro cylinder for precise positioning and force control.
As with the frame sizes ETH032, ETH050 and ETH080, the development of the ETH100 focused on realising an extraordinary force density (force per frame size). The precision ground ball screw is the centre piece of the construction. The ETH cylinder offers low friction, an efficiency of up to 90%, smooth operation over the entire speed range and a long service life.
