Kyntronics
Innovative Actuation Solutions for Every application
The Kyntronics Difference
Kyntronics Actuators are…
Energy Efficient– using Power on Demand Safe and Reliable– No Hoses, No Leaks Rugged and Durable– Tolerates Shock and Side Loads Low Maintenance– No Metal-to-Metal Wear Precise– with Servo Control of Position, Force and Speed Configurable– Closed System, can be oriented in any direction
Kyntronics actuation systems are available as a “Total Solution” that includes the actuator, motor, controls, programming software and factory support.
Kyntronics actuators incorporate an integral hydraulic cylinder with a minimal amount of fluid (often less than most gearboxes) driven by a bi-directional pump in a totally-sealed system. A simple yet elegant design that changes the paradigm for actuation options.
Design Features:
Simple design, uses fluid for power transmission. Only uses power when operating – saves energy. Robust design, no metal-to-metal wear components – extends operating life. Totally sealed system, no hoses, no fluid changes, no filters, no lubrication – minimal maintenance. Scalable from low rated forces (100 lbs.) to 150,000 lbs. with stroke lengths up to 120 inches. Programmable, precise servo control of Position, Force and Speed using standard PID motion control. Total Solution option is available (actuator, motor, drive on a panel, software, fully tested ready to operate). Actuator only option is available using customer preferred motor and drive. Modular design for short lead-times. Field repairable.

Kyntronics Hybrid Linear Actuators (SHAs) incorporate the benefits of hydraulic actuation while eliminating their deficiencies. The SHA uses a minimal amount of fluid and is fully sealed, eliminating the risk of leaks making the product safer with less downtime. It requires minimal maintenance and provides excellent shock load tolerance. The SHA saves energy using ‘power on demand’ and delivers precise control of position, force, and speed.
