MOVE SMARTER with IC™ actuators

With our IC actuators you can make some seriously smart moves that speed up your R&D process and cut your time to market. Because an IC actuator removes the need for external power electronics, you have fewer components to install. This lowers the risk of mounting errors and malfunctions and accelerates installation. It also makes the electric actuator quicker to service or replace. This reduction in complexity is made possible by a built-in H-bridge that controls the actuator’s movement in both directions.

Of course, an IC actuator is nothing without an interface. To make it simpler for you, we have a variety of industrial interfaces readily available to ease your design and integration process - even into complex systems. The built-in interfaces make it quicker to reach the point where you tailor your actuator’s movement to meet your application needs - and it is easier to realise its full potential by specifying more than simple linear movement. Whether your application needs are basic or complex, opting for our IC actuator is simply the smartest move.

Get built-in computing power to monitor the health or status of your electric actuator from the integrated controller’s sensors. This allows you to troubleshoot faster and schedule maintenance to reduce downtime. Through sensor values, the actuator can protect itself from high temperatures, increased current consumption etc., which could indicate that action is needed. The actuator stores historic usage data, and based on these patterns you can make continuous improvements, making your application move smarter and optimising productivity.

With one supplier delivering the entire linear movement solution, you can optimise your product journey from development to future maintenance with tried and tested technology based on decades of experience. In one smart move, you take control of every single process from specification to end-user satisfaction.
