Driving Cost and Complexity Out of the Machine Design Process
Parker's HMR actuator is specifically designed for OEMs, Machine Builders, and End Users looking for a heavy-duty industrial positioner with the versatility to solve today's hardest engineering challenges. This dual square rail guided actuator boasts two different drive train options and five different frame sizes along with a multitude of other configurable options, giving it superior loading capacity packaging in an extremely low-profile footprint, all with the intent of reducing overall design time and allowing for a clean and dramatically simplified integration into any machine layout.
Parker HMR Key Features
Parker HMR Series
Five different frame sizes ranging from 85mm- 240mm.
The broad range of frame size options allows the user to maximize performance while minimizing the overall footprint.
- Maximized functionality- 2 different drive train options.
By integrating two drive train options, a high-efficiency timing belt, or a precision ball screw, the HMR allows the designer to cover a much broader range of design requirements from a single product family. Whether you need the speed and travel length of a belt drive or the precision and thrust capacity of a screw the HMR is truly optimized for any application.
- Two different extrusion profiles- Basic or Reinforced.
The HMR comes standard with options for either a low-profile, cost-effective "Basic" profile for applications utilizing fully supported mounting or a highly reinforced, rigid construction "Reinforced" profile for long un-supported spans.
- IP54 environmental protection with optional covers.
The HMR can be configured with or without IP54 protective covers that completely wrap the outside of the chassis and utilize Parker's best-in-class seal strip technology to protect the internal components from contamination.
- Internally protected sensor option.
Parker's line of global sensor products are featured on the HMR. These sensors can either be mounted externally into a t-slot running the length of the frame, or internally mounted beneath the IP54 cover.
- Reduced overall maintenance through easy access lubrication ports.
Designed with the user in mind the HMR integrates easy-access lubrication ports on either side of the carriage which pass lubrication directly to the bearing trucks and ball nut. This allows the user to lubricate the system without removing the cover assembly, greatly reducing maintenance time and complexity.
HMR Series - High Moment Rodless Linear Actuator
HMR Series Linear Actuator

HMR belt-driven actuators are designed for applications requiring high speed or long travel lengths. The belt-driven version of the HMR gives OEMs the freedom to mount the motor in any of four positions at 90-degree intervals around the axis of motion, allowing the engineer to capitalize on space utilization and add true value to the design process.
HMR ballscrew driven actuators are designed for applications requiring high thrusts or higher precision. The ballscrew driven version of the HMR offers 2 different lead profiles per frame size to maximize the optimization of the drive train based on throughput needs.
