The Parker ETH is the next generation of electric screw driven linear thrust cylinder/actuator product that is suitable to replace pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders in many applications while simultaneously increasing the reliability of the production process and decreasing overall cost and maintenance. Parker ETH050 high force screw drive electric cylinder/actuator offers compact design and high thrust to 2091lbs. Utilizing a completely new integrated drive train and guidance design, the ETH has greatly improved overall thrust capacity within a smaller overall footprint, producing a cylinder with industry leading power density. The ETH is designed to compete with similarly sized roller screw products and offers an energy efficient solution to hydraulic actuation. The new integrated design creates a more durable unit overall that has dramatically increased product life characteristics.

ETH screw drive cylinders/actuators are engineered to be extremely user-friendly employing a wide range of configurable options to allow for true application optimization. They can be configured with either inline or parallel motor mounting options to allow for accommodating tighter space constraints. With a standardized ISO footprint, ETH cylinders can be designed into existing fluid power applications, adding programmability and the option of closed loop control as well as high durability and long life. Due to the high mechanical efficiency of an electric cylinder they offer lower overall cost of ownership relative to similarly sized fluid power systems.

With five different frame sizes to meet a multitude of application demands, the ETH family has been optimized to fit almost any industrial requirement, and has been successfully implemented in applications such as test and laboratory equipment, valve and flap actuation, press equipment, food and beverage process automation, packaging, along with a multitude of general material handling applications.
