Our actuators are used to provide force and motion or support and balance depending on the application. We develop solutions that support machinery, scissors lifts and shake, rattle, roll mounts and more. Air springs can provide the counterbalance force to support the upper platen on can making machinery so that the mechanical drive only needs to do the work of forming the metal—not lifting the platen. The low spring rate of the air springs means greater energy-efficiency. On a scissor lift table air springs allow the manufacturer to offer much longer travel. The high force and lateral or angular compliance allow great flexibility in design. Our Airstroke actuators lift the vibrator and isolate vibrations on shake, rattle and roll mounts.
