ABSTRACT:
An actuator (10) comprises a housing having sections (11, 11') joined by a band clamp (12). A high torque, low speed motor (14) is provided in the housing and has a rotor (17) associated with a ballscrew rod (18) which is received in the hollow end of a ballnut/rod (20). The ballscrew rod (18) and the ballnut/rod (20) are provided with grooves (19, 20 respectively) between which ceramic balls (20) are entrained. The rod (20) translates in only a rectilinear direction and the grooves (19) of the ballscrew rod (18) are protected from the environment by the ballnut/rod (20) which covers the free end of the ballscrew rod (18).
