The Smart Actuator 4 (SA4) is a single function linear motion mechanical actuator, which can receive different types of electrical / electronic commands and control a mechanical device. Smart Actuators make it possible to integrate a system’s onboard electronics. Automating manual control and feedback can greatly increase performance, improve safety, and lower costs. Electronic-mechaical smart actuation extremely simplifies the mechanical task by reducing the number of components needed. Smart Actuation also makes position, speed, and status feedback easy to monitor.
Applications
The Smart Actuator 4 can be used in almost any application requiring an electronic input and mechanical output
Construction Machinary
Utility Highway Vehicles
Factory Automation
Agricultural Equipment
Capabilities
- Able to receive absolute or incremental position feedback from embedded potentiometer or encoder
- End of stroke signaling when the actuator has reached either end of its stroke
- Dynamic breaking allows for high position accuracy and coasting control
- Network communications for condition monitoring, diagnoistic, and other applications through CAN bus connectivity
- Synchronization functionality which allows for up to 4 actuators to share a load
- Real time monitoring of voltage and temperature with ability to shut down an overloaded actuator.
Benefits
- Increaed efficiency
- Fewer components needed to acheive calculated motion
- Reduces cost
- Enhanced safety
- Improved feedback and diagnostics
- Simple installation and integration
