ScrewRail® Actuator Assemblies

The ScrewRail® linear actuator includes a precision lead screw integrated within a guide rail, which drives an integrated nut. This assembly combines the seperate functions of drive and guidance in one single coaxial component.

Screwrail Linear Actuator Assemblies

The ScrewRail® eliminates the need for external rail-to-screw alignment and simplifies the design, manufacture and assembly of motion control systems. The combined design saves much of the space used by a two-rail system and is generally less expensive.

Additionally, the ScrewRail® is capable of providing 3D motion when mounted vertically. With one motor driving the screw and a second rotating the rail, an accurate positioning mechanism is created.

The Reliance range of ScrewRail® Actuator Assemblies offers accurate positioning and long life in a compact assembly, benefits include:

  • Standard Lengths up to 914mm
  • Standard and anti-backlash option available
  • Ability to get three-dimensional motion, when mounted vertically
  • Self-lubricating nut/bushing materials ensure long life without maintenance
