Note 1: With the 300-stroke type of CT55, the rated speed is 470 mm/s as calculated from the critical speed of the ball screw. If the stroke is shorter, the
actuator can be operated at 1,000 mm/s at a maximum. However, the service life may be shortened.
Note 2: Model CT is capable of receiving only an axial load. The horizontal mass capacity is the value when an LM Guide is also used and no axial load is
applied to the rod. When making a selection, take into account the sliding resistance of the LM Guide. For specific sliding resistances of LM Guides,
see the general catalog.
Note 3: The values apply at acceleration of 0.3 G.
Note 4: The value applies when the actuator receives a load and operates at the rated speed and acceleration of 0.3 G.
Note 5: The specifications apply to the actuator mounted with each size of a standard motor in page 13. If a different motor is used, the actuator's
specifications are different. Also note that the rated values of the actuator unit must not be exceeded.

Safety Precautions
Never touch the moving member of the actuator while it is energized.
Do not enter the operating range of the actuator when it is operating or operable.
When installing, adjusting, inspecting or maintaining the actuator, driver or related equipment connected to either of them, be sure to disconnect all
power plugs from outlets, and lock them or prepare safety plugs in order to prevent non-operators from turning the power. Additionally, place a notice
indicating that the product is in operation in a place where it is easily visible.
When two or more persons operate the actuator, confirm the steps, signs and anomaly handling in advance, and have another person observe the
operation.
Thoroughly read the JIS standard General Safety Rule for Industrial Robots (JISB8433) and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfares Ordinance
on Labor Safety and Hygiene before operating the product, and strictly observe these rules when operating the product.
Carefully read and fully understand the Instructions Manual for Low Price Actuator Model VLA, and be sure to observe the precautions on safety.
