THK VLA-CT-35-06-0050-N-000-N-N-N Linear Actuator

The THK VLA-CT-35-06-0050-N-000-N-N-N Linear Actuator is a compact rod-type electric actuator designed to replace pneumatic cylinders in light-duty automation. With a 35 mm body width, 6 mm ball screw lead, and 50 mm stroke, it delivers precise, smooth motion in tight spaces, driven by a precision ball screw paired with THK's maintenance-free lubrication technology. The unit uses an 8 mm ball screw diameter and a 16 mm rod diameter, supports up to 300 mm/s and up to 80 N of rated thrust (with a maximum thrust of 240 N), and handles horizontal mass up to 8 kg or vertical mass up to 3.8 kg. Positioning repeatability is ±0.02 mm. It ships without a motor, encoder, or sensor, allowing integration of the customer's own drive system, and features an integrated QZ Lubricator for extended maintenance intervals and low-noise, energy-efficient operation. This actuator belongs to THK's VLA Economy Series (CT configuration) and is commonly used in factory automation equipment, assembly machines, packaging systems, laboratory equipment, semiconductor machinery, and material handling systems. Ideal for OEM installations, retrofits, repairs, or replacements of pneumatic or electric linear motion systems.
