DD & RAD CYLINDER CHARACTERISTICS


TRAVEL RATE Measured in inches per minute at full dynamic load.

DYNAMIC CAPACITY Measured in pounds.

RATED LIFE Measured in millions of inches (ball screw models only). Based on the ball screw cylinder only dynamic capacity.

STANDARD MOTOR HP RATING Standard Motor HP Rating Seemotor page for additional motor information.

STANDARD BRAKE TORQUE Measured in (pound-feet).

APPROXIMATE STOPPING DISTANCE
These values are used when initially setting the limit switches. Stopping distances are approximate. Large inertia forces, such as loads moved at high speed supported on anti-friction guides may affect stopping distance.

INERTIAL LOADS SHOULD BE EVALUATED TO BE SURE IT DOES NOT EXCEED THE UNITS DYNAMIC CAPACITY.

MOTOR LENGTH Measured in inches.

MAX ROD REACTION TORQUE Based on full dynamic load. Torque will be proportionally lower for lower loads.

BASIC WEIGHT See specific units for weight. These weights do not include motor weight.

LENGTH NOTATION
To determine standard extended and retracted length use the formula for each specific model/capacity. For special retracted lengths please contact Nook. (SEE FIG 1.)

WARNING! Any change to standard lengths may compromise the cylinder's compression load carrying capacity.

MAXImUM LOAD Thrust capacity Measured in pounds.

MAXIMUM INPUT TORQUE Measured in (inch-pounds)

MAXIMUM TRAVEL RATE Measured in inches per minute

BALL SCREW See individual ball screw page for screw specifications. Lead accuracy of 0.004"/ft.

TORQUE PER LB.
Torque, in inch-pounds, required to generate one pound of output force. This is also the rod reaction torque.
