Precise actuation for testing applications
MTS actuators are designed to meet the unique precision and dependability requirements of testing. Our engineers use proprietary materials and processes to minimize friction, helping to maximize reliability, wear resistance and energy efficiency. The MTS DuraGlide 201 Hydraulic Actuator uses the latest technology to create our best single-ended actuator yet.
Improved Data Accuracy
These high-fidelity actuators save time by producing statistically significant results in fewer batches. In a closed-loop system, fidelity is only as good as the weakest link, and a poor performing actuator will add distortion and measurement uncertainty into the system. To maximize performance and produce more accurate results, the MTS DuraGlide 201 actuator incorporates proprietary seal and bearing designs that reduce friction.
Longer Performance Life
The low-friction design uses only 1% of rated load, resulting in smooth operation that reduces wear and extends operating life. The MTS DuraGlide 201 Actuator is also validated through physical testing to more than 100% of rated load, providing dependable performance for longer life. Another way to extend actuator life is to choose the optional SureCoat™ Rod Finishing Technology to increase service life by 10x over the previous generation actuator.
More Standard Options
With three standard rod configurations and one of the widest ranges of stroke lengths, it is easy to find the appropriate solution for your test applications. There is no need to compromise on size or features - get exactly what you need. These fatigue-rated, single-ended actuators are ideal for everything from basic testing to high-performance applications.
