Lead Screw Driven Linear Actuators
Use our configuration tool to configure and order.
Lead screw driven style linear actuators provide high-performance linear motion for light or heavy loads at an economical price. Couplings and hardware to mount small NEMA frame and SureServo motors are available, as well as hardware to create up to three axes of movement.

Lead screw driven linear actuators combine reliable linear motion with an economical price for low-cost linear motion for light or heavy loads, and are ideal for vertical applications. These actuators force a nut to slide along a threaded shaft. Unlike ball screws, the nut remains in direct contact with the shaft as it turns. The ability to drive them with either small NEMA framed or SureServo motors allows for a wide range of motor options.

igus SAW Series
igus SAW series lead screw actuators pair stainless steel lead screws with dry-running iglide polymer carriage and nut components on hard-anodized aluminum twin rails. They fit guided axes where low maintenance and multi-axis assembly are important, with W1040 and W1080 rail sizes providing different footprint, stroke, and moment-load capabilities.
- W1040 models cover shorter, smaller-footprint axes, while W1080 models extend stroke to 750 mm and provide greater moment capacity
- Dry-running polymer guidance and lead screw nut components eliminate routine bearing lubrication
- Motor-mounting options support compatible stepper or servo motors for single- and multi-axis arrangements

PBC Compact Series
New!
PBC Compact series lead screw actuators use a small-footprint platform with two guidance choices. Ceramic-coated aluminum plain-bearing versions suit lighter-load motion, while hardened steel profile-rail versions address applications requiring greater load capability and positioning accuracy. Both styles include NEMA 17 motor mounting for simplified motor integration.
- 5 and 10 mm lead screw pitches provide two travel-per-revolution choices for matching axis motion requirements
- Plain-bearing versions cover travel up to 465 mm, while profile-rail versions extend the Compact platform to 595 mm
- Guidance construction can be selected independently of lead screw pitch, allowing the axis to be matched to both motion and load requirements

PBC UG Series
New!
PBC UG series lead screw actuators extend the PBC actuator offering to longer guided axes, with travel up to 1,250 mm and a choice of ceramic-coated aluminum plain-bearing guidance or stainless steel V-guide bearings. They fit layouts where longer stroke and selectable guide construction are the primary focus.
- 5 and 10 mm lead screw pitches provide two travel-per-revolution choices for matching axis motion requirements
- Motor adapter options support compatible 40 mm, NEMA 17, and NEMA 23 motor frames

(UGTDA0250LAX-AD)
SureMotion LAHP Series
SureMotion LAHP series lead screw actuators use the rigid recirculating-guide platform shared with LAHP ball screw models but substitute an anti-backlash lead screw for controlled positioning at lower travel speeds. They suit applications that value guide rigidity, repeatable motion, longer travel, and configurable multi-axis construction without requiring a ball screw drive.
- Travel from 52 to 910 mm supports short through longer machine-axis layouts
- 25, 33, and 33W frame formats allow selection around footprint and moment-load requirements
- Compatible motor brackets and couplings support SureStep and SureServo motor integration

(LAHP-25TM52LP25)
SureMotion LAVL Series
SureMotion LAVL series lead screw actuators use a single-piece hard-anodized aluminum base with integrated sliding surfaces for guided motion in machine layouts that benefit from a simple, enclosed structure. The actuator can mount horizontally, vertically, or inverted without reducing rated load capacity, making orientation flexibility a primary selection factor.
- Rail bushings operate without lubrication, while the lead screw requires periodic lubrication as part of normal maintenance
- 0.2- and 0.5-inch lead choices provide different travel-per-revolution options for matching axis motion requirements
- Integrated sensor grooves and NEMA 17 motor mounting simplify sensing and motor installation
Starting at
(LAVL2-60T06LP2)
SureMotion LACP Series
SureMotion LACP series lead screw actuators combine guide surfaces, carriage, and drive components in a narrow self-contained body for light-load motion where installation space is limited. A single-piece hard-anodized base and integral wireway reduce external components, while travel choices from 6 to 36 inches extend the compact format across different axis lengths.
- 0.5- and 1-inch lead screw pitches provide two travel-per-revolution choices for matching speed and thrust requirements
- NEMA 17 motors mount directly, with coupling options supporting NEMA 23 motors when additional motor capacity is needed
- Integrated guide and drive construction reduces the number of separate components required to build a guided axis
