NEMA 17 DWM 42 MM Slide Actuator
The NEMA 17 DWM Series slide actuator is a 42 mm wide guided linear module that combines a stepper motor, lead screw, and wide-body slide structure into one ready-to-integrate motion solution.
Designed for OEM systems, the DWM 42 mm series offers flexible lead screw options, multiple stroke selections, and guided linear motion for automated positioning applications.
NEMA 17 DWM Wide Slide Actuator Overview
The DWM Series is a guided linear slide actuator platform for compact automation applications that require a motorized linear module with integrated guidance. The NEMA 17 / 42 mm version is suited for guided motion axes that need a larger frame size, flexible lead screw selection, and standard stroke options up to 500 mm.
