Anti-Backlash Non-Captive Actuator

Problem

Many non-captive actuator applications require elimination of backlash to ensure high accuracy and repeatability. Anti-backlash mechanism is rarely available on non-captive actuators since the nut is integrated into the rotor of the motor. When solutions do exist, they are often cumbersome to setup and maintain, and prove to be unreliable.

Solution

We have designed an anti-backlash mechanism for non-captive actuators that requires no setup and delivers reliable long-term service.
