An electric cylinder is an actuator that, with the help of a servo motor or stepper motor, performs a linear movement. It consists of a ball screw and a piston rod, which is extended and retracted and generates the linear movement, similar to a pneumatic cylinder. Electric cylinders can be used in a wide range of applications, for instance in assembly technology, packaging technology and factory automation as well as in robotics and transporting materials.
与使用压缩空气运行的气缸不同，电缸使用电机产生直线运动。电缸也称为电动执行机构，一般比气缸更精确，对运动的控制度也更高。除此之外，电缸运行时也更安静。气缸使用压缩空气产生运动，排气时会发出嘶嘶声。电缸使用电流产生运动，几乎没有噪音。
电缸可广泛应用于各行各业，比如组装技术、包装技术、工厂自动化、机器人和物料运输等。在机器人或搬运技术领域，可以使用此驱动器移动、调整和操作物体。在工厂自动化领域，可以使用线性驱动器实现组装和包装等任务自动化（比如可以将部件移动到正确位置进行组装，或者拾取产品放入包装容器内等）。在物料搬运领域，可以使用驱动器在仓库和其他环境中移动和定位物体（比如将装有货物的托盘从一处移动到另一处，或者调整输送带高度等）。
滑台式电缸是将伺服电机或步进电机的旋转运动转换成直线运动的设备。这种机电解决方案由电机、丝杠或滚珠丝杠，以及沿轨道运动的滑台几部分构成。直线滑台通常用于需要精确、受控直线运动的应用，比如搬运技术或机器人、机床或工厂自动化、组装技术或包装行业等。
