Linear Technology Industry
Custom electric actuators for machines that need reliable motion.
When force, stroke, speed and installation space do not fit neatly together, a simple adjustment becomes an engineering task. S+R sizes electric actuators so they fit the machine mechanically, electrically and commercially.
Typical tasks
Which motion needs to work reliably in this application?
flaps and slides
clamping and pressing motion
handling axes
retrofit of existing machines
Requirements
Sizing starts with the environment, not with the nameplate.
repeatable positioning
This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.
short cycle times
This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.
limited installation space
This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.
defined interfaces
This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.
traceable spare-part supply
This affects the design, spindle, motor, sensors, protection class or service access.
S+R solution route
Project requirements become a robust motion solution.
check load case and interface
The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.
select AP, SP or XP as design principle
The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.
adapt motor, spindle, sensors and mounting
The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.
provide testing and documentation for series or project use
The decision is documented so engineering, purchasing and service can understand why this route was selected.
Technology building blocks
Proven design principles as a basis for individual solutions.
AP, SP and XP are not a rigid product logic; they are typical ways to build force line, installation space, protection and control.
Application images
Views of assemblies, installation space and real operating environments.
The images show typical tasks in this industry: installation space, interfaces, drive position, mounting and environment become visible directly at the component.
