Tolomatic announces the availability of YOUR MOTOR HERE, an easy-to-use online database that checks in-line motor-to-actuator mounting compatibility and makes the match for customers. From a series of drop-down windows, a user would simply select the motor manufacturer of choice, choose the motor series, select the motor model, and a list of matching Tolomatic actuators would be displayed. Once the actuator of choice is selected, verification of the motor and mounting plate dimensions can be confirmed.

This database can also provide:

• Thousands of motor-linear actuator combinations, including popular brands from more than 35 manufacturers of servo and stepper motors.

• Online searches by either motor manufacturer or Tolomatic actuator series.

• Availability of made-to-order motor mounts and actuators in five days or less at no charge.

• A furnished reference code for the mounting kit to place an order.

• Links to Tolomatic’s sizing and selection software to verify that selected actuators are correctly sized.

• A link to actuator 3D/2D CAD files.

• More than 480 motor model listings matched for inline motor mounting to all Tolomatic RSA rod screws, GSA guided screws, B3S rodless screws, BCS rodless screws, SLS rodless screw slides and B3SW belt drive actuators.

• Frequent updates as new motors and Tolomatic actuator combinations are requested.
