08/21/2026

Joyce/Dayton EDrive actuators, paired with a servo motor and drive, support the communication protocols your system already runs on — meaning they can integrate cleanly into your existing controls architecture right alongside the equipment you already have.

Supported protocols include:
▸ EtherNet/IP — the standard for Rockwell/Allen-Bradley environments
▸ ProfiNet — communicate with PCs and SCADA systems such as with Siemens
▸ Modbus — HMI communication across PLCs, drives, and process systems
▸ And more — including EtherCAT (Kollmorgen PCMM2G/AKD2G), LabVIEW, and analog input for research, test, and scientific automation environments.

This matters for machine builders and system integrators who are adding linear motion to an existing system rather than building from scratch. You shouldn't have to redesign your controls architecture to add an actuator. With Joyce/Dayton, you won't have to.

Our Application Engineers are available to help you work through the integration details for your specific setup.

Automation runs on software. It's built on mechanics.

Join Joyce/Dayton's Eric Claudepierre at IMTS 2026 for a session that goes beyond the buzzwords and gets into what actually makes automated systems perform.

TOPIC: The Mechanical Foundation of Electrification: From the First CNC Retrofits to Modern Linear Motion Automation

📅 Tuesday, September 15 | 3:15 - 4:10 PM
📍 West Building, Level 1 | Meeting Room 194-A

Hydraulics get the job done. Until they don't.
Fluid leaks. Contamination risks. Maintenance downtime. Temperature sensitivity. If you've been managing these tradeoffs, you already know the cost.

Joyce/Dayton’s EDrive Eliminator HD3 and HD4 electric actuators are built to replace hydraulic systems in demanding applications, delivering the same high load capacity and speed you need without any of the fluid power baggage.

Eliminator HD3 | HD4

🔹 Rated thrust: 2,000 to 6,000 lbf
🔹 Max velocity: up to 20 in/sec
🔹 Max stroke: up to 42 in
🔹 Fully controllable, repeatable, and easy to adjust
🔹 Clean, enclosed ball screw design: no fluid, no leaks, no mess

And here's the best part: HD3 and HD4 models are now available with shorter lead times than ever. That means we can engineer a solution around your application and get your project moving without the wait.

Clean force and speed. Faster Delivery.
