LOW FORCE, HIGH IMPACT: INDUSTRIES USING HYBRID LINEAR ACTUATORS 

When it comes to low force actuation, Kyntronics Servo Hybrid Actuators (SHA) deliver high durability and reliable performance across a wide range of industries. These actuators aren’t just lightweight alternatives, they’re engineered for precision, long life, and minimal maintenance, making them ideal for applications where reliability matters just as much as force.

1. Medical & Laboratory Equipment

Low force pressing and forming operations in medical and lab environments often demand accuracy, consistency, and clean operation. SHAs excel in tasks like medical device assembly pressing, thermo-welding, crimping, and forming, where repeatability and safety are critical. Unlike traditional hydraulic presses, SHAs eliminate messy leaks while delivering the precision and reliability these sensitive applications require.

2. Packaging & Material Handling

Modern packaging lines and related converting processes like slitting and rewinding require speed, precision, and repeatability to keep up with automation demands. At the same time, material handling systems, from conveyors to AGVs, depend on controlled, reliable motion to keep production flowing. SHAs meet both needs with servo-controlled precision, compact design, and long-lasting durability, making them a low-maintenance solution across packaging, converting, and handling systems.

3. Robotics & Automation

Robotic systems often need compact, lightweight actuators for smaller payloads. Low force solutions allow for tighter designs, reduced power consumption, and smoother operation, making them ideal for collaborative robots, end-effectors, and precision pick-and-place systems.

4. Testing Applications

In product testing environments, consistency, control, and repeatability are essential. Hybrid Actuators provide precise force control and reliable actuation for endurance, fatigue, or functional testing without the leaks or variability of hydraulics. This makes them well-suited for industries ranging from automotive to consumer goods, where accurate test data drives safety and performance validation.

5. Clean Energy & Electronics

Emerging technologies, from battery production to solar panel assembly, demand clean, efficient, and precise motion. Low force actuators deliver this performance while supporting sustainable manufacturing goals with power-on-demand energy efficiency.

ACHIEVE PRECISION WITH LOW FORCE ACTUATION

Choosing the right actuator isn’t just about maximum force capacity. For many industries, low force performance is the key to efficiency, product quality, and lower operating costs. With Kyntronics’ Hybrid Linear Actuators, you don’t have to compromise – you get precision, reliability, and energy savings at any force level.
