10/29/2019 | Thomson Industries to showcase innovative portfolio of Electrak® linear actuators

Thomson Industries, Inc., will be attending Agritechnica 2019 – the world’s leading agriculture machinery trade fair alongside Altra Industrial Motion Corp. from 10th – 16th November in Hanover, Germany.

Delegates and visitors attending the tradeshow will gain an exclusive opportunity to see Thomson’s new Electrak® MD linear actuator, alongside a wide range of electromechanical linear actuators and solutions. Thomson’s broad range of linear actuators delivers high power density, high durability and strength with the ability to exert forces up to 22,000 newtons. The portfolio showcase will include the Thomson Electrak MD, Electrak HD, Electrak Throttle, Max Jac, Electrak GX, Electrak 1 and the Warner Linear M Track, B-Track and H-Track actuators.

Eliminating the need for space consuming external equipment and delivering expanded force offerings, Thomson’s new Electrak MD electric linear actuator provides onboard electronics, high environmental resistance, and a compact design with the ability to carry loads up to 2 kN.

Exclusive to the tradeshow, Thomson will also be highlighting their integrated synchronisation options for the Electrak HD and Electrak MD line of actuators providing more control, power and durability. These features will be shown as a live demo on the booth, in addition to “smart” actuator features such as onboard electronics and built-in SAE J1939 Can bus option showcased in the Electrak HD, Electrak MD, and Electrak Throttle.

Thomson representatives will be on hand throughout AGRITECHNICA 2019 in Hall 15, Booth G24 to discuss the diverse portfolio of application solutions provided by its electric linear actuators. For more information, please visit www.thomsonlinear.com.
