DA 78

Ultralight and compact welding servo actuator

DA78s are roller screw electric actuators specially designed for ultralight welding guns. With the minimal weight of only 6.1 kg, these actuators can generate high forces of up to 13 kN.

DA78 has shown excellent performance in those projects of car body manufacturers, where workshop space is limited requiring high equipment density.

Electric brake
In order to provide additional gun arms fixation when power supply is off, servo actuator may be equipped with a brake preventing arms displacement caused by gravity. Long-armed guns with substantial weight may require this option.

Built-in water cooling

Built-in water cooling circuit enables high performance in the most intense applications with heavy-duty welding cycles.

DA 78 with water cooling
Manual drive
Usually, during the gun assembly, rod extension and retraction can be performed by screwing/unscrewing it (except for the actuators with a built-in anti-rotation). A manual drive may be needed when it’s necessary to manually retract/extend rod without rotation.
Radial Load Support
For applications with increased radial forces affecting the actuator rod Diakont has developed a solution allowing higher side loads of up to 650N.
