Material Handling Applications

Precision, Efficiency, and Reliability for Next-Generation Manufacturing

PRECISION ACTUATORS FOR MATERIAL HANDLING IN AUTOMATION

As automation accelerates across industries, material handling systems are evolving to demand higher performance, precision, and durability. From warehouse logistics and packaging lines to construction sites and defense applications, the actuators you choose directly impact the efficiency, safety, and flexibility of your equipment.

Kyntronics hybrid servo actuators and servo power units are widely used in material handling equipment thanks to their high force density, compact design, long stroke capabilities, accuracy and low-maintenance operation.

 

EXAMPLES OF KYNTRONICS ACTUATORS USED IN MATERIAL HANDLING APPLICATIONS:

  • Lift Tables: Deliver programmable high-force lifting with shock load tolerance in space-constrained environments.
  • Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) & Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs): Rely on DC linear actuators for energy-efficient lifting systems in mobile platforms.
  • Coil & Roll Handling: Manage heavy industrial loads with smooth, accurate positioning.
  • Material Bundling: Operate reliably in dusty, dirty environments using heavy-duty hybrid actuators.
  • Munitions Handling: Actuators built for rugged reliability, with high ingress protection and minimal maintenance.
  • Pallet Handling: Perform long-stroke linear motion with consistent, high-load performance across cycles.

 

UNIQUE ADVANTAGES OF KYNTRONICS ACTUATORS IN MATERIAL HANDLING:

  • Long-Stroke Lengths: Available with standard stroke length up to 120”, ideal for bundling large materials and reach-extending applications.
  • Synchronized Motion: Multiple actuators can be programmed for precise, coordinated movement, essential in AGV lift systems, multi-point lifts, or pallet stacking.
  • Servo Precision Control: Achieve smooth, high-speed positioning and accurate force feedback, crucial for automated operations requiring consistent load handling.
  • Rugged Reliability: Designed to perform in harsh, high-impact environments with minimal wear, ensuring maximum uptime.

Kyntronics actuators outperform traditional hydraulic cylinders, roller screw EMAs, and pneumatic systems with a smarter, more compact design and the ability to tailor force, speed, and position for each application.
