3. Easy to Install: Aiming for seamless integration into existing systems, the simplicity of design makes actuators easy to install, reducing downtime and ensuring smooth operation from the start.
4. Low Maintenance: One of the key advantages of TiMOTION’s electric actuators over traditional hydraulic systems is their low maintenance requirements. With no need for oil changes or complex hydraulic systems, these actuators reduce long-term operational costs.
5. Customized IP Ratings: TiMOTION actuators have various IP ratings up to IP69K. These ratings provide protection against dust, dirt, and high-pressure water jets where exposure to foreign objects is common. These customizable IP ratings ensure the actuators meet specific environmental requirements based on the application.

 

When selecting a heavy-duty linear actuator, evaluating factors such as load capacity, speed, and environmental conditions is essential.

 

Start by determining the required load capacity based on your machinery's tasks. Higher load capacities are needed for heavy-duty applications like lifting or pushing large components.

 

Next, consider the speed—too fast can cause wear, while too slow may affect efficiency. Additionally, choose the appropriate IP rating for your actuator, such as protection against dust, moisture, or harsh environmental conditions.
