Energy solutions

LINAK actuators improve energy efficiency when opening hatches and hoods on wind turbines, automating pellet ovens, as well as when moving solar panels towards the sun.

Improve energy efficiency with actuator solutions 

Since COP21 in Paris, the drive to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions has intensified. All over the world, people, organisations and governments are focused on increasing the amount of green energy produced, and minimising CO₂ emissions from existing energy sources. With a LINAK electric actuator, you can improve your energy application and get the advantages of:

  • Flexible and low-energy solutions that are easy to install
  • Eco-friendly and maintenance-free actuators
  • Guaranteed, tested and durable products

With locations such as in the middle of the sea, in the burning sun or in dusty surroundings near a pellet oven, equipment and materials in the energy business are consistently put to the test. As the demands for cleaner and more CO₂ neutral energy production increase, technology becomes ever more refined and plays an active part in every detail. LINAK actuator solutions help minimise energy waste when opening hatches and locking brakes in wind turbines, create motion in solar tracking panels, and remove cinder in pellet ovens.

Increase energy efficiency in any application
The fact that electric actuators are not reliant on pumps or compressors makes them inherently more energy efficient. Standby consumption is extremely low, and the compact actuator design makes solutions very flexible and able to fit almost any application. For the same reasons, LINAK solutions are very easy to install.

Make it easy to be green
It goes without saying that the low energy consumption adds to the improved CO₂ footprint, as does the absence of oil-spills occasionally released from other types of actuator. Without hoses, pumps and compressors, LINAK solutions require almost no maintenance, significantly reducing the risk of downtime.

Rely on durable solutions with a long service life
All LINAK actuators are thoroughly tested prior to release. Bumps, shocks, vibration, humidity, water, fluctuations in temperature, and even electromagnetic radiation tests are all covered by the LINAK R&D test centre. This means high levels of reliability as well as extensive durability warranties.

Focus on pellet heating

In recent years, heat production with wood energy has increased considerably. More and more domestic homes heat with wood pellets while industries mainly use woodchips.

Focus on wind turbines

A world of movement and opportunities for wind turbines - LINAK delivers high quality actuator solutions for wind applications, developed over 15 years in close cooperation with the wind industry.
