Synchronized Aluminum Punch Press Application – Hybrid Linear Actuator Upgrade

Synchronized Aluminum Punch Press Application – Hybrid Linear Actuator Upgrade

This video highlights how an office furniture manufacturer upgraded its punch press by replacing an aging traditional hydraulic power unit with two synchronized Hybrid Linear Actuators. The application required high force, durability under shock loading, and precise control—performance EMAs couldn’t deliver.

In this video, you will see:

  • The synchronized Hybrid Linear Actuators driving the punch press
  • Precise, repeatable motion using integrated position & force control
  • How the solution eliminated leaks, reduced maintenance, and improved efficiency

Ask the Experts: What is Side-Loading and How Does It Affect My Actuator?

In this episode of Ask the Experts, our team dives into one of the most common and often overlooked issues in actuator performance: side loading. Side loading can drastically shorten actuator life if not properly addressed.

Our experts explain what causes side loading, how it affects different actuator technologies, and why hybrid linear actuators provide a superior solution.

In this video, you will learn:

  • What side loading is and why it occurs
  • How it affects electro-mechanical and hydraulic actuator designs
  • Why Kyntronics Hybrid Linear Actuators are built to handle side and shock loads
  • Real-world examples of design considerations to prevent premature actuator wear

Ask the Experts: What Makes a Hybrid Linear Actuator “Hybrid”?
