New linear actuator offered as alternative to pneumatic actuation

★ By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

The new LDL25 Series Linear Actuator from SMAC has been designed as a cost-competitive alternative to pneumatics. A common trend in industrial automation is that users are looking for electric alternatives to their pneumatic components for a number of reasons: control, cycle life, operating cost and environment, among others. The LDL series actuator features several innovative cost reduction elements that result in a list price starting at $300 US.
