Small Gantry NEMA17 Modular Belt Drive Actuator (20x60mm, 110mm Travel) is a belt-driven linear actuator designed for use with a NEMA17 stepper motor. It converts rotary motion into linear movement, providing a practical solution for applications that require fast travel over longer distances with controlled positioning. Built around our modular aluminium extrusion system, the actuator offers a cost-effective solution for linear motion and is easy to integrate into a complete system or machine.
Folded aluminium end mounts allow direct mounting to extrusion and gantry plates without additional brackets, simplifying the construction of 2-axis and 3-axis machines.
Key Features
- Belt Drive: Converts motor rotation into linear movement through a belt and pulley mechanism.
- Motor Compatibility: Designed for use with a NEMA17 stepper motor.
- Fast Travel: Belt-driven motion is well suited to applications that require rapid movement between positions.
- Long-Travel Potential: Well suited to applications that require movement over longer distances.
- Linear Positioning: Provides controlled movement along a single axis when paired with a suitable motor and control system.
- Modular Construction: Uses parts from our aluminium extrusion system for easy integration into a complete system or machine.
- Folded Aluminium End Mounts: Allow direct mounting to extrusion and gantry plates without additional brackets, simplifying the assembly of 2-axis and 3-axis machines.

Application
Linear actuators can be used in positioning systems for sensors and inspection cameras, small automation projects such as parts feeders and sorting mechanisms, and camera sliders for video and time-lapse photography. They can also be combined to create 2-axis or 3-axis machines for pen plotting, laser cutting, CNC machining or 3D printing, with actuator selection depending on the load and precision required. They are suitable for researchers, developers, businesses and personal use. Their cost-effectiveness and modular construction make them easy to integrate into a wide range of applications.
