Innovative Actuation Solutions for Every application
Traditional hydraulic power units (HPUs) and cylinders have long been used in industrial automation, but they come with high maintenance costs, inefficient energy consumption and environmental concerns. Many users of this technology are dealing with constant oil leaks, energy waste, and complex hydraulic systems and are looking for a better alternative.
Hydraulic actuators are powerful and robust, but they come with a long list of challenges:
High Operating Costs: Hydraulic systems require regular fluid and filter replacement including disposal of used fluid creating environmental issues.
If your business struggles with these issues, there is a better solution.
Many industries have attempted to replace HPUs with Electro-Mechanical Screw-Type Actuators (EMA), but these systems come with their own limitations:
The Hybrid actuator (SHA) combines the best features of hydraulics and electro-mechanical actuators while eliminating their shortcomings. This all-electric actuator provides high force capabilities, precise motion control, and unmatched energy efficiency in a compact, self-contained system.
Cost Savings: Businesses can save $90,000 or more annually by switching to SHA technology.
1. Significant Energy Savings
Unlike HPUs that run continuously, wasting power, Kyntronics’ Hybrid SHA operates only when needed. This power-on-demand technology reduces energy consumption and lowers electricity costs, making it a sustainable choice for businesses.
2. Improved Workplace Safety
Leaking hydraulic fluid is a leading cause of workplace slips, falls, and environmental contamination. The SHA’s completely sealed design eliminates these risks, ensuring a safer, cleaner workspace.
3. Elimination of Fluid Contamination
Hydraulic systems require frequent fluid replacement, adding to maintenance costs and causing unplanned downtime. The SHA eliminates the need for fluid replenishment and disposal, reducing operational expenses and improving system reliability.
4. Superior Motion Control and Precision
In industries where precision is crucial, the SHA outperforms traditional hydraulic cylinders by providing highly accurate force, speed, and positioning control. This improves process quality and provides data for documentation and process improvements.
5. Dramatic Cost Reductions
By replacing hydraulic cylinders and EMAs with a Hybrid SHA, businesses can significantly cut costs related to energy consumption, maintenance, and downtime—saving thousands annually.
Kyntronics Hybrid SHA technology is a proven solution for industries looking to upgrade from traditional HPUs. Whether you need an actuator for automation, heavy machinery, or precision manufacturing, the Hybrid SHA provides unmatched efficiency, safety, and cost savings.
Gears, roller and ball screws and other mechanical components wear out from metal-to-metal contact from repetitive concentrated loads.
