The Industrial-Duty (ID) series of Glideforce linear actuators by Concentric International (formerly Iowa Export-Import) are powerful 12V DC gearmotors that use an acme screw drive or ball screw drive to move a shaft back and forth along its length. The shaft will hold its position even when unpowered. The versions with acme screw drives (part number LACTx-500Ax) can move loads up to 250 kgf [550 lbs or 2500 N] and withstand static loads up to 450 kgf [1000 lbs or 4500 N], while versions with more efficient ball screw drives (part number LACTx-1000Bx) can move loads up to 450 kgf [1000 lbs or 4500 N] and withstand static loads up to 1360 kgf [3000 lbs or 13,600 N].

Two limit switches safely stop the motor at either end of its range, while integrated diodes allow it to reverse direction after reaching a limit point if the supplied voltage is reversed, and a built-in overload clutch protects the actuator from excessive dynamic loads. The actuators have an all-steel frame and extension tube, and the entire case is sealed to protect against dust and water.

Industrial-Duty (MD)	250 kgf [550 lbs]	1.7 cm/s [0.66″/s]	1.4 cm/s [0.56″/s]	2.4 A – 13.2 A	4″	LACT4-500APL
					6″	LACT6-500APL

					12″	LACT12-500APL
					18″	LACT18-500APL
					20″	LACT24-500APL

Heavy-duty mounting brackets made from machined aluminum or stamped steel are available for attaching the actuators to a structure; two are required for each actuator. A mounting clevis is also available for converting either actuator end into a clevis-style.
