Compact Guided

Electric Actuators


Norgren’s compact guided electric actuators are designed with a similar size, construction, and body of a pneumatic actuator in order to accommodate tight spaces for a diverse range of applications. With an integrated hybrid step motor and lead screw design, this electric actuator family enables users the motion control flexibility demanded by today’s machine designers.

Extruded Flat Electric Thruster EFET Series

Norgren’s Extruded Flat Electric Thrust EFET Series provides a compact, low profile design to maximize space within machine design operations. This actuator is based on simplifies converting a pneumatic application to electric motion. With multiple screw and lead configurations available, users are able to optimize performance based on the demands of the application.

  • Low profile design for maximum space saving
  • Rod-style option available (no tooling plate) for maximum design flexibility
  • Ideal for high thrust force applications
  • Largest motor in the series – up to 200lbs thrust
  • Hard chrome plated guide shafts with large surface area tooling plate
  • Ideal for high thrust force applications

Extruded Flat Electric EFE Series

Norgren’s Extruded Flat Electric EFE Series Actuators feature no guide rods or tooling plate which is beneficial for moving guided loads. This actuator series provides a compact, low profile design to maximize space within machine design operations.

  • Low profile design for maximum space saving
  • Rod-style option available (no tooling plate) for maximum design flexibility
  • Ideal for high thrust force applications
  • Largest motor in the series – up to 200lbs thrust
  • Maximum stroke range from 83 to 131mm
  • Bore sizes: 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm

Extruded Electric Thruster EET Series

Norgren’s Extruded Electric Thruster EET Series provides a compact, rugged and guided alternative to traditional pneumatic cylinders. Like all actuators in this family, these thrusters are ideal when plant air quality or compressor availability is not available or is lacking. This series of compact thruster actuators provide precise control and positioning giving a fast and reliable electric motion solution. Our EETS model is available with flush mount guide shafts for even more compact mounting in tight spaces.

  • Extra-long guide shafts provide high radial load capacity
  • Large tooling plate for optimal mounting versatility
  • Ideal for high side loading applications
  • Composite and ball bearing options available for ultimate flexibility
  • Stroke range: 100mm to 255mm
  • Bore sizes: 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm

Narrow Profile Electric Table NPET Series

The Narrow Profile Electric Table NPET Series electric actuators provides precise load guiding with a recirculating ball rail above the actuator body. A recirculating linear bearing mounted under the table provides industry leading load ratings along with a stable guide system for the two mounting surfaces.

  • High thrust capabilities for a wide range of applications
  • Recirculating linear bearing for high moment loads
  • Industry-leading stroke range
  • Ideal for cartesian-type and pick and place applications
  • Stroke range: 170mm to 200mm
  • Bore sizes: 20mm, 32mm
