In March 2013, the dairy cattle specialist at Lely presented a feeding robot. The Vector automatic feeding system. To optimise the system, Lely makes use of electric actuators.
The landscape of production facilities is evolving rapidly, demanding flexible, functional, and ergonomic workstation layouts that suit every individual. MZR, a company based in the west of France, specialises in the development of ergonomic industrial production equipment that not only adapts to the operators, but also enhances overall productivity. When creating their electric work trestle, they opted for LINAK electric lifting columns.
It is always a pleasure to do business, particularly with those who share common values. LINAK Australia recently partnered with 4Site, whose mission is to change people’s experience of life.
More comfort and better ergonomics - these two requirements apply to many areas of life and work. For a French boat manufacturer, onboard electric actuators help enhance the experience of comfort significantly.
There is really nothing new about a trunk that can be opened electrically – at least not when talking about cars. But things are quite different when it comes to motorhomes, especially the large ones, such as the MORELO GRAND EMPIRE. Available with a length of up to 12 metres and a permissible total weight of 18 to 26 tonnes, this trunk is not used to stash away shopping bags or suitcases, but used to hide a car or motorbike.
The hood of a wheeled excavator or dumper is very heavy and unmanageable to open, close and hold manually. That is why the Danish machine manufacturer Hydrema has chosen LINAK electric actuators to do the job.
When the Estonian company HOOB was asked to build a completely new assembly line for a global company, they looked to LINAK to meet the ergonomic goals of the project.
The French company Neoditech makes manipulating arms used in workshops and production environments. Ergonomics plays a key part in their products, and with one customer, a tailor-made solution changed the ‘impossible’ to ‘possible’.
In the world of outdoor adventure, every innovation counts. For Supertramp Campers, a leading manufacturer of truck campers, the challenge was clear: Transform the heavy and awkward manual roof lifting system into something that would revolutionise the camper industry.
A height adjustable dining table using actuators and a battery solution from LINAK represents a new product by Danish Skovby Møbelfabrik.
When Maersk Germany moved to a new building, the company made the decision to provide all its employees with an ergonomic workstation that included a height adjustable desk option.
The Danish water utility company, Aarhus Vand, wanted to make better use of their secondary clarifier tanks for wastewater treatment. This meant a switch from manual handling of the water in the tanks to automatic regulation with electric actuators from LINAK. For the sub-department Egå Wastewater Treatment Plant, one of the benefits has been a 10% higher tank capacity.
Belgian company AVR has been developing potato harvesting machines since the second half of the 20th century.
Lars Møller Andersen, owner of Møller Andersen ApS, got the idea for a weed wiper for agriculture many years ago. He had some prototypes made, which were then shelved. He has since retrieved the machine again because he realised that with a few adjustments, he could make it much more efficient. This included equipping it with actuators from LINAK.
The Dutch company Farmertronics has created an autonomous tractor that eases the work of modern farmers. This innovative machine is fully electric and features LINAK actuators.
Australian company Makinex uses their knack for innovation and the unwavering passion for improving efficiency to design specialised solutions for a range of material handling environments.
Ergonomics is increasingly important in the design and marketing of construction and mining machines. For Swedish-based Sandvik Group reliable electric actuators helped improve ergonomics – for example in their underground drill rigs.
Whether you need linear movement for opening, closing, adjusting, or tilting, our actuators got you covered. Tailored to Off-highway machinery, the new option for the LA36 and LA37 actuators delivers robust performance and simple connection.
Automation is one of the fastest growing trends in modern industry, and brings with it a demand for CANopen control options. LINAK actuators support both this trend and the protocols associated with it. Whether you are in automated manufacturing or building autonomous vehicles, you will find them easy to integrate and configure.
Use the My Recliner app to control a recliner and get more readily available features with a user-friendly interface.
When winter comes to Denmark, it often brings cold, snow and icy roads. Salting is essential to avoid accidents - even on pavements and paths - and now also on artificial turf pitches. The Danish company Saltnex specialises in making machines that can do just that. Winter environment in Scandinavia, however, is one of the toughest there is, and it puts major demands on all machine components. That is why Saltnex uses LINAK, who can meet these demands with extra tough actuators.
Residents in modern city micro-apartments often have to be creative when it comes to furniture in their homes. The space available for interior appliances is minimal, which is why the demand for multi-functional furniture is growing rapidly.
For most people, a bed is the piece of furniture they spend the most consecutive hours with every day. This is probably why it is one of the key items of furniture in any home, regardless of the home’s size. Architects and designers often focus on beds when they want to add multi-functionality to furniture. Beds converting into sofas is nothing new. But this is just the beginning.
LINAK actuator solutions are flexible and can be customised to meet special demands. However, several good suppliers also help by providing third-party products to broaden the number of options.
It is quiet. It is agile, and it weighs only 500 kg. Meet Phoenix – a lightweight field robot designed for the agriculture of the future. Operating without a driver, Phoenix will help push standards for horticultural machinery.
