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.
Smart Actuator 4
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
