Festo ELGC, 8062792 Electrical Linear Actuator, 1500mm/s, 1200 mm

This electrical linear actuator converts rotary drive into precise linear movement for industrial automation tasks. It is intended for continuous-duty applications where consistent actuation is required, and it integrates smoothly with motion-control systems using either a servo or stepper drive. The unit is designed for environments where standard ingress protection and moderate ambient temperature ranges are expected.

• 100% duty cycle enables uninterrupted operation and long run periods
• Recirculating ball bearing guide reduces friction and improves positional accuracy
• 1200mm stroke length supports extended travel in Compact systems
• 1500mm/s maximum speed allows high-rate linear transfer and quick cycle times
• Operable up to +50°C for use in warm production areas
• IP40 rating permits installation in controlled indoor industrial settings

• Suitable for pick-and-place mechanisms in assembly lines
• Ideal for linear positioning in test and measurement rigs
• Used with gantry systems requiring reliable long-stroke actuation
• Can be used for conveyor alignment and part transfer operations
• Suitable for robotic end-effector linear stages

Its drive can be paired with either a servo motor for closed-loop control or a stepper motor for open-loop positioning, allowing selection based on control precision and integration preferences.

The recirculating ball bearing guide minimises wear and reduces lubrication intervals compared with plain-slide guides, lowering routine maintenance frequency.

Yes, the specified duty characteristic supports continuous operation without rest cycles, making it appropriate for ongoing industrial processes.

The ingress protection limits exposure to solids and liquids, so it should be mounted in sheltered indoor locations and not used in wet or heavily contaminated areas.
