Hybrid Actuators for Low-Force Applications – Power & Motion

Kyntronics is excited to share our latest technical article contribution to Power & Motion, examining how evolving performance demands in low-force automation applications are driving the adoption of hybrid linear actuators as an alternative to conventional electromechanical solutions.

Key highlights from the article include:

• Evolving performance requirements for low-force industrial automation applications is prompting manufacturers to re-evaluate the types of linear actuators they use in their machines.
• While electromechanical actuation technology is commonly used in low-force applications, it may not be able to provide the long-term durability required in some applications.
• Hybrid linear actuators that bring together the power of hydraulics and with the precision of electric control, offering a viable option for low-force applications with high-performance demands.
