Specify the load

SKF rotary actuators are designed and built for heavy duty operation. Not only in terms of torque but also to support external load. The output shaft is dimensioned to take considerably heavier loads than those exerted under conditions of maximum torque. This means that it can withstand high bending stresses.

The axial load carrying capacity amounts to several thousand N. As the SKF rotary actuator can withstand extreme loads it can also serve as a load-bearing element of your design. Special bearing arrangements are not usually required. With a custom made shaft,

just attach the rotary actuator to a simple support, couple the equipment to the shaft of the acutator and switch on!

Mount directly

SKF rotary actuators are delivered ready to mount. They are compact units with few component parts in relation to their capabilities. Their simple, robust construction ensures reliable performance for many years of operation. Four Bolts are needed for mounting. The actuators can be used in almost any kind of environment;

hot or cold; dry or damp. There is no need to worry about adjustment or maintenance. SKF rotary actuators are lubricated for life.
