Since 1987 MecVel Srl Italy is in the linear automation field, developing and manufacturing a constantly updated range of electric linear actuators and mechanical screw jacks.These products transform the rotatory motion of a motor into a linear movement, to push, pull, lift or position loads even higher of 20 tons.Moreover, an important customization service provided by the company allows to configure each product in detail (mainly in terms of force, speed, stroke and power supply), to tailor it according to customer technical specifications, which is supported in any phase of development of the project.

In addition, the electric system used offers a lot of benefits, if compared to hydraulic and pneumatic ones, as being suitable for different industrial fields.

Experience and technical knowledge lead the company to configure its products according to applications needs, having a tailored range, innovative and with high performance, at the service of customers.

Products Information

We have created Linear Actuator for power and control applications used in individual units, systems and peripheral equipment.

DC Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is an electromechanical device providing a linear movement, in contrast with the rotatory motion of the applied electric motor. The linear actuator, in fact, transforms a rotation into a linear movement of pushing, pulling, lifting or positioning loads even up to 20 tons. The use of the electric system leads to a series of benefits, if compared to hydraulic and pneumatic ones, as being suitable for many applications in different industrial field.

AC Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is an electromechanical device providing a linear movement, in contrast with the rotatory motion of the applied electric motor. The linear actuator, in fact, transforms a rotation into a linear movement of pushing, pulling, lifting or positioning loads even up to 20 tons. The use of the electric system leads to a series of benefits, if compared to hydraulic and pneumatic ones, as being suitable for many applications in different industrial fields.
