How to Select the Ideal Actuator for Your Application (EU)


Higher duty cycles, longer life expectancy, enhanced controllability – these are just a few of the requirements a design engineer needs to consider when developing a new machine. Besides these, many recent advancements in electric actuator technology have opened up new design opportunities that help increase productivity, improve environmental resistance, and make conversion from hydraulics and pneumatics a simple choice. Let us help walk you through the actuator considerations jungle.  


Watch this 45-minute on-demand webcast, and learn about the most common challenges when choosing linear actuators for your applications:

• Key design considerations

• Torque control vs. speed control

• Duty cycle and lifetime

• Efficiency

• Control and precision


Do you want your linear motion design projects to remain on the cutting edge? Learn more about the different linear actuator requirements in AGVs, smart railway, automated farming robots, access lifts for trains and buses, and many more.
