Pacific Fluid Systems is the Wood Products market system integrator for E-Drive Design, Incorporated in all of North America. E-Drive Design manufactures electro-mechanical linear servo actuators that replace hydraulic cylinders for motion control applications.

E-Drive Design, Incorporated has shown consistent success in the toughest applications, e.g. high loads, high speeds, high precision, and extreme durability. Precision ball screw systems, tailored for maximum life, load and speed, provide the motion while fully enclosed, thus eliminating contamination related failures.

E-Drive manufactures the Eliminator HD™ Heavy Duty ball screw linear actuator to replace hydraulic and pneumatic linear actuators. The all steel construction Eliminator HD™ heavy duty ball screw linear actuator provides a strong, durable, and precise linear motion actuator for industrial automation.

The Eliminator HD™ is available with traditional hydraulic cylinder mounts such as front flange, bottom, foot and trunnion. The Eliminator HD™ is designed to suit virtually any motor, gear box or gearhead the customer chooses to use. In-line as well as parallel offset configurations are standard with 1:1 and 2:1 synchronous gearbelt ratios available. A long bronze nose bearing provides support for the extended piston. Rugged bronze keys in opposing steel slots provide anti-rotation and counter the tangential forces created during high speed, high frequency, and high load operation.

Eliminator HD™ Heavy duty Linear Actuator Benefits:


  • Rugged Steel Construction
  • High Dynamic Capacity Components
  • High Thrust Even at High Speed
  • Positional Accuracy
  • Accepts Most Combinations of Motors or Gearheads without an Adapter Plate
  • IP54 Rated
  • Variety of Standard Mounting Options

The Eliminator HDR™ heavy duty linear actuator with roller screw option is the only roller screw actuator manufactured in North America with machine tool grade, heavy wall steel construction. The heavy duty roller screw linear actuator series was developed to provide a strong, durable, and precise linear actuator for high end applications. It offers the many advantages of our ball screw actuators with additional benefits for certain critical applications such as impact loading.

The VecTac VT™ ball screw actuator series was developed to provide a high quality, rugged and durable linear actuator for lower force applications. Using a rugged aluminum alloy cylinder and chrome plated heavy wall steel piston, this fluid power replacement linear actuator insures rigid alignment of critical bearing supports. The VecTac VT™ fluid power replacement linear actuator was designed to accept virtually any manufacturers' motor, has a thrust range of 400 to 2,000 lbs. and a linear velocity capacity of up to 40 inches per second.
