Discover how hybrid actuators combine the best features of electro-mechanical and hydraulic actuation technologies while eliminating their respective drawbacks.
Kyntronics experts explain what causes side loading, how it affects different actuator technologies, and why hybrid linear actuators provide a superior solution.
An automation integrator needed a compact, energy-efficient actuation system for a punch and crimp press — one that delivered precise, repeatable motion without the size, cost, or maintenance baggage of traditional hydraulics or roller-screw electric actuators.
Kyntronics provided our SHA Hybrid Linear Actuator, paired with a Teknic, Inc ClearPath® servo motor. The SHA’s hybrid design provided the durability and shock-load tolerance of hydraulics with the clean, precise control of an electric actuator.
Customer Outcomes: → Compact, energy-efficient actuation for lower force press application → Precise, repeatable force & position control for consistent part quality → Low maintenance & clean operation — no hoses, filters, or leaks
Designed as an educational guide, the playbook addresses common challenges in press applications while providing insight into modern actuator technologies and best practices for long-term performance. It combines industry trends, real-world application considerations, and technology comparisons to help teams make more informed decisions when designing new presses or upgrading existing systems.
The Press Application Playbook covers a wide range of topics, including: • Common press types and their unique actuation requirements • Side-by-side comparisons of actuator technologies used in press applications • Best practices for selecting actuators for pressing applications • Real-world pressing solutions using hybrid actuation technology
