Tube Forming / Flattening Press
Challenge
An end user in the light pole manufacturing industry wanted to improve process control on their tube forming servo press machines and required a robust actuation solution that was environmentally friendly and could provide higher forces and tolerate shock loading. A screw-type EMA could not handle the required force and the shock loads inherent in the process.
“It was an easy solution working with an integrator, the end customer, and Kyntronics to provide an advanced actuator that provided enhanced control and energy savings that the customer is now realizing. It was easy to work with Kyntronics personnel to help me in specifying the motor requirements for the servo system.”
