SOLVING PRESS PROBLEMS WITH HIGH-PERFORMANCE LINEAR SERVO HYBRID ACTUATORS

PRESSES ARE KEY PLAYERS IN INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING

In the fast-paced world of industrial manufacturing, presses play a crucial role in applications like composite molding, sheet metal stamping, and precision forming. However, traditional hydraulic actuation systems commonly used on presses present major challenges, including:

❌ High energy consumption
❌ Frequent fluid leaks
❌ Costly maintenance
❌ Limited Precision

Kyntronics’ Hybrid Linear Actuation (SHA) systems solve these issues by combining the best features of hydraulic and electro-mechanical actuators. It delivers an innovative solution that is smarter, cleaner, and more precise replacement actuator for hydraulic presses across a wide range of industrial applications. 

COMMON CHALLENGES WITH INDUSTRIAL PRESS APPLICATIONS

Industrial presses must deliver high force, precise motion control, and long-term reliability. Yet, existing actuator solutions have significant limitations:

How can manufacturers get the best of both worlds?

INTRODUCING KYNTRONICS’ HYBRID ACTUATION SOLUTION

Hybrid Linear Actuators (SHA) addresses these challenges by integrating the benefits of both hydraulic and electric actuators:

• Unmatched Power & Precision: Force ratings from 100 to 150,000 lbs. with smooth, precise control.
• Energy Efficiency: Power-on-demand technology reduces energy waste and operational costs.
• Leak-Free, Low Maintenance: A sealed, self-contained design eliminates the need for bulky HPUs, hoses, or reservoirs.
• Scalability & Flexibility: Multiple actuators can be synchronized for high-force applications.
• Smart Connectivity: Industry 4.0 integration enables real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and IoT capabilities.

These attributes make the SHA an exceptional replacement actuator for hydraulic presses, delivering modern performance in both retrofits and new equipment designs.
