Multiple actuator solutions for combine harvesters
Optimised performance and greater quality crop output are key demands from combine harvester customers. Current legislation requires the industry to provide more sustainable and energy-efficient products. To meet all these demands can be quite a challenge. But, using electric actuators will give you a number of advantages:
- Durable and maintenance-free solutions
- Intelligent feedback to increase efficiency and improve safety
- Low-energy and environmentally friendly actuators
Harvesting puts a lot of strain on the machinery. It has to cope with all sorts of conditions – from rain and mud to dusty crops and soil in the summer sun. Meanwhile, the harvester has to work relentlessly as a piece of finely tuned precision equipment. On a combine harvester, electric actuators help adjust augers, trenchers, concaves and cutters, as well as ergonomic components.
Demand durable and maintenance-free solutions
LINAK actuators are thoroughly tested before they leave the factory. Bumps, shocks, vibration, fluctuating temperatures, humidity, dust and even electromagnetic radiation is tested, to ensure all products are compliant with certification requirements.
Receive intelligent feedback and improve safety
The integrated electronics in LINAK actuators give design engineers detailed feedback and the opportunity to fine-tune automatic adjustments inside the harvester. Adding this data to the overall control system will allow the driver to remotely control actuators from the cab. This increases efficiency and significantly improves safety.
Stay cost-efficient and environmentally friendly
Using electric actuators not only saves you the cost of actuator maintenance, it also gives you controls that are more precise. The low energy consumption – especially when actuators are on standby – means your vehicle optimises fuel consumption and generally becomes more environmentally friendly. Furthermore, the risk of pollution from oil-leaking hoses is non-existent.
