    "Off-the-Shelf" NEMA 17 or 23 Stepper Motors Rated for -40°C?

    that's what I was thinking.

    "Off-the-Shelf" NEMA 17 or 23 Stepper Motors Rated for -40°C?

    Not a big fan of LIN motors. their customer support is non-existent post covid. Couldn't get a quote without pulling teeth.

    Small & Affordable Electronic Actuators that Withstand -40°C to 85°C?

    Perhaps an option.

    Small & Affordable Electronic Actuators that Withstand -40°C to 85°C?

    No that's good. That is the brainstorming that I am looking for right now. That certainly is an option. Our compressor system does like to pass a lot of oil as we tap from compressors that support our main production. Basically we have a lot of low quality air from some large roots...

    Small & Affordable Electronic Actuators that Withstand -40°C to 85°C?

    These are very large testing chambers and any sort of cable or rod actuator would very long I think. Also we test a lot of parts at once, so there would need to be a lot of cables going through the port in the side of the temperature chamber.

    Small & Affordable Electronic Actuators that Withstand -40°C to 85°C?

    We might not have that option if the goal is affordability. We have to use compressed air from our facility. We also do millions of cycles, so I would probably need a lot of nitrogen over time.

    Small & Affordable Electronic Actuators that Withstand -40°C to 85°C?

    Hi guys. As the title states, I am looking for your favorite small actuator or device that can handle the mentioned ambient temperatures. Basically , I do a lot of temperature chamber testing that requires I move parts a few mm (usually less than 100 mm) with a force of about 50 N at around 20...

    "Off-the-Shelf" NEMA 17 or 23 Stepper Motors Rated for -40°C?

    Hi there. I'm new here. Basically I am looking for a NEMA 17 or 23 sized stepper motor that can operate in the temperature of -40°C to 80°C. Most off-the-shelf motors are only rated down to -20°C, after which the bearing grease starts to solidify. There are a few companies that make custom...
