Electric actuators are rapidly replacing pneumatic and hydraulic systems due to so many benefits in production, overall costs and the environment. Some of these reasons include:   

• Variable and programmable force   

• Superior accuracy and repeatability 

• Greater speeds   

• Higher control over positioning   

• Energy saving   

• Low operating cost 

• Reduce production time 

• Longer unit life 

• Smaller size options   

• Reduced maintenance 

• No oil leaks 

With significant improvements to productivity with a much lower running cost, it’s easy to see why they are becoming increasingly popular within the manufacturing industry.   

ORLIN Technologies are distributors of SMAC voice coil (VCA) or moving coil actuators and positioning stages. They are unique in that their force, position, acceleration and velocity are freely and totally programmable. Designed to perform at exceptionally high speeds, they provide a very high degree of accuracy and repeatability.
