A tier-one automotive supplier was experiencing continual roller screw electro-mechanical actuator failures from shock loads on their damper and bearing presses and needed a reliable solution.
They required assembly press actuators with precise force and position control, performing quality process verification and data capture with their pressing processes.
Kyntronics provided a Total Solution hybrid linear actuator with integrated force and position control.
Customer Outcomes: → Eliminated roller screw actuator failures causing excessive downtime and high repair costs → Improved quality of parts using position and force control → Integrated quality checks and pass/fail data collection
In today’s manufacturing environments, some engineers and plant managers are cautious about introducing equipment into their facilities that contain oil or lubricants. The concern usually centers around one thing: fluid leaks. Hydraulic fluid leaks, mess, and maintenance are memories of traditional hydraulic power units (HPUs) that still shape how people view fluid-based actuation today.
In this insight article, we break down how Kyntronics hybrid linear actuators use less fluid than “oil-free” EMAs and how a completely sealed design delivers clean, maintenance-free actuation.
