Helical rotary actuator for valve applications
XR SERIES · HELICAL HYDRAULIC ROTARY ACTUATORS

High-Torque-Density
Helical Rotary Actuators

Double-helix transmission converts piston motion into shaft rotation, combining rotary drive, load support and holding for valves, indexing, tilting, clamping and heavy-duty rotation.

THREE PRODUCT FAMILIES

Drive torque varies approximately with actual A/B port differential pressure. Torque, radial, axial and overturning loads must be evaluated as a combined load case.

PRINCIPLE & INSTALLATION

Operating Principle, Mounting & Hydraulic Control

Hydraulic Locking & Counterbalance

Hydraulic locks hold position; bidirectional counterbalance valves control overrunning loads and loss-of-pressure risks.

Position Feedback

Mechanical indicators, proximity or limit switches and position sensors can be integrated with valve blocks and speed control.

Key RFQ Inputs

Running, breakaway and peak torque; rotation, travel time, pressure, flow, combined loads, flange and output interfaces.
