Innovative Actuation Solutions for Every application
A machine builder of lumber processing equipment had a mill customer who wanted to eliminate hydraulics from a chip head positioner due to hydraulic leaks that were spoiling the finished lumber product. They wanted to also improve the positioning accuracy of the chip head. An electro-mechanical actuator would not work due to the high forces and shock loading of this environment. They required a lifting actuator that was both precise and shock load tolerant.
