Military Platform Lift System

Challenge:

A military customer needed a long stroke lifting actuator to replace hydraulics on a console lifting system for a shipboard application. They required a manual backup operation feature and reliable operation over a wide temperature range. The controls needed to be packaged in a stainless-steel enclosure with an HMI and software.

Kyntronics Solution:

• All-electric, all-in-one lifting actuator solution with operator HMI and application software
• Servo positioning with power on demand
• Manual backup drive for power loss situations
• Heater for extreme cold environments

Customer Benefit

• Optimized (SWaP) Space, Weight and improved Power (SWaP)
• All-in-one with HMI and standalone controls with Ethernet communications

Application Requirements

• Stroke: 75"
• Force: 5,000 lbf

Industries

• Aerospace / Defense
