Kyntronics
Innovative Actuation Solutions for Every application
Test labs rely on precision, reliability, and efficiency to ensure accurate results and repeatable performance. However, traditional hydraulic systems used in test applications often fall short, leading to frequent maintenance, downtime and long changeovers.
Kyntronics’ Hybrid actuator (SHA) technology solves these challenges by integrating the power of hydraulics without the shortcomings of traditional hydraulic systems. Here’s how SHA can transform your test lab operations.
Test labs often deal with testing a variety of products with a wide range of requirements for force, speed and position. Traditional hydraulic systems require time to adjust from one test setup to another which impacts lab productivity. Kyntronics’ Hybrid SHA technology is fully programmable and can cover a wide range of force, stroke and speed requirements.
Traditional hydraulic power units (HPUs) run continuously, consuming excessive energy—even when idle. Kyntronics’ Hybrid SHA eliminates waste through power-on-demand technology, reducing energy use by up to 90% lowering electricity costs, cutting long-term operating expenses. The SHA also extends system lifespan by reducing wear and tear. By switching to the SHA, your lab benefits from a smarter, more sustainable motion control system.
Hydraulic systems require frequent maintenance due to leaks and fluid contamination that require routine fluid changes. Additionally, by eliminating hydraulic oil disposal, the SHA helps labs meet sustainability goals while maintaining regulatory compliance. SHA’s sealed design has fewer moving parts and no external fluid reservoir allowing your test lab to run with minimal interruptions – keeping operations smooth and predictable.
Leaking hydraulic fluid poses safety risks, environmental hazards, and potential contamination issues in test labs. The SHA’s sealed system removes this concern entirely, ensuring a cleaner, safer and quieter work environment. In addition, the SHA compact design eliminates the large footprint of hydraulic power units freeing up valuable lab space and is easily portable.
The SHA Total Solution system option includes the actuator, servo motor, controls and software. It easily interfaces with external load cells required by many test labs for traceability. The control system includes several field bus interfaces for integration with popular lab analysis software. The SHA is ideal for fatigue testing, durability testing and operates in both tension and compression profiles.
Kyntronics’ Hybrid actuator (SHA) technology is redefining motion control in test labs by delivering:
For test labs looking to improve accuracy, efficiency, and reliability, Kyntronics Hybrid actuator systems (SHA) technology offers the ideal solution. Whether you’re replacing aging hydraulic systems or seeking a more energy-efficient alternative, SHA provides the performance and cost savings your lab needs to stay competitive.
