4 MP-Series Electric Cylinders
Rockwell Automation Publication MPAR-IN001D-EN-P - September 2012
About the MP-Series Electric Cylinders
MP-Series electric cylinders feature multi-turn high resolution encoders and are available with
24V DC brakes. The MP-Series motor rotates a ballscrew drive that converts rotary motion into
linear movement. This linear movement results in the piston rod extending and retracting from
the electric cylinder housing.
The MP-Series electric cylinders have been designed for exact positioning at high speeds.
IMPORTANT
The MP-A/Bxxxxx-x2x electric cylinders are non-braking. When there is no input torque, the
piston rod can be moved freely. You can achieve self-locking of your motion system by using
motors with an integrated brake or with high self-braking torque.
