The GMA Series of Electromechanical Actuators give you the thrust, speed, stoke and precision in a single convenient product. This new design includes the servo-center to efficiently position a guide structure, sensor, chasing equipment and/or web.

A single global design replaces and is backwards compatible to all existing Fife Actuators (including LAB-1, LAB-3, GAB-1, GAG-2 and GAG-3). This new, electromechanical design provides accuracy and simplicity through clean, electronic operation while eliminating the continuous maintenance and upkeep required using traditional hydraulic cylinder operation. With a wide variety of thrust, speed, and stroke models available, you have the flexibility to solve even the most demanding applications.

Fife Actuators are ideal for use with a Fife web guide controller and steering guide, displacement guide or sensor positioning equipment in, slaving, chasing, and unwind/rewind applications.

Medium, electro-mechanical actuator with maximum static thrust of ca. 7.100N

The LAB-10A is a medium duty electromechanical actuator from Fife, predominantly for unwind / rewind stands. The LAB-10A also provides a variety of mounting options which offers a high degree of flexibility in order to meet different requirements. The mechanical design ensures low friction, effective and precise operation.. Limit Switches are not necessary when driven by Fife signal amplifiers. Therefore, no on-going maintenance is required.

The H5535 series actuator combines the rugged design of roller screw technology with the efficiency and reliability of an AC servo motor. This results in an actuator that is brushless for reduced maintenance, provides position feedback without external devices, maintains position accuracy during loss of power without a homing sequence, outlasts ball screw designs by doubling the travel life, and is available in thrust ranges of 500 lbs (2.2 kN) to 40,000 lbs. (178 kN). The high thrust and high duty cycle of the H5535 series make it an excellent replacement for hydraulic cylinder applications. When compared to a hydraulic cylinder, the lower cost of operation in energy savings and the elimination of contamination issues related to hydraulic oil leaks, make the H5535 a perfect choice to upgrade existing hydraulic actuators.
