SMC has developed a compact, low profile range of guided slider electric actuators. The LEM series of electric actuator has a lifespan 3 times greater than its predecessor the E-MY2 but mounting dimensions have remained the same making it fully interchangeable with the previous version. Its compact design and choice of 4 motor mounting positions make it ideal for narrow and tight spaces. A separable guide unit and drive unit make maintenance easy and the LEM actuators are compatible with SMCs wide range of controllers including the LECP2 programme free units.
