Linear actuators - tough enough for construction work The main concerns when considering an electric actuator solution for heavy- duty construction machinery and equipment are durability and reliability. These machines must work relentlessly in all kinds of weather and withstand dust, dirt and rough handling. Any failure could put both people and values at risk. Not to mention the often costly delays caused by failing equipment. We give you two good reasons why you can rest assured that your TECHLINE ® actuator solution will do the job no matter what. “More than 15 years of experience with construction and close cooperation with major construction manu- facturers has matured our products in robustness and supplied quality.” - Søren R. Bruun, Application Engineer, Off-highway The first good reason is our extensive testing programme. The second and equally important reason is the fact that all members of the TECHLINE team of engineers and consultants have vast product and application expertise. Quite simply, we understand and respond to your needs. Our primary objective is to help improve your application to give you a competitive edge. A linear actuator has a long lifetime with little or no maintenance at all. This ensures a very low total operating cost compared to other systems. Electric actuator systems are quiet, clean, nontoxic and energy efficient. They fulfil the ever increasing demands and legislation concerning environmentally sound equipment. Go electric and spot the difference Electric linear actuators are the perfect solution when you need simple and clean movement with accurate and smooth motion control. You may choose actuator systems for adjustments, tilting, pushing, pulling and lifting with thrusts up to 15,000 N. Actuators can be integrated into sophisticated control systems using data bus communication. You get precise position feedback and accurate variable control over acceleration and velocity. Compared to both hydraulic and pneumatic systems an actuator solution is a lot easier to install. It takes up less space and there are no hoses and pumps that require routine maintenance.
