Tolomatic, Inc. has announced the launch of the RSX50, the newest and most powerful member of the RSX Extreme Force family of electric linear actuators. The RSX50 delivers 50 tons of force in a frame footprint nearly identical to the RSX25, representing a significant leap in power density for high-force electric linear motion.
The RSX series provides an electric alternative to hydraulic cylinders in industrial applications. Engineered around Tolomatic’s high-precision planetary roller screws, it delivers the force, reliability and environmental compliance that modern manufacturers demand without the mess, complexity and maintenance burden of hydraulics. The series achieves up to 66,000 pounds-force, 59-inch stroke lengths and speeds up to 30 in/sec. Built with Type III hard-coat anodized aluminum housings and an optional IP67 rating, these actuators perform reliably in the harshest environments.
Where the RSX25 delivers 25 tons of force, the new RSX50 achieves 50 tons, doubling the force output with just a slightly larger frame. The new model is ideal for high-force applications where precise electric control is replacing legacy hydraulics, including metalforming, such as pressing, punching and stamping, as well as timber processing and injection molding.
Key advantages of the RSX platform include:
- Precise, measurable force control for improved productivity, quality and repeatability.
- Zero-leak, green design, eliminating hydraulic fluid, reducing scrap and ensuring environmental compliance.
- Lower total cost of ownership through lower energy consumption and simplified maintenance.
- Roller screw technology engineered for high-force, high-cycle industrial duty.
- Consistent performance across wide operating temperature ranges.
