Multiple actuator solutions for combine harvesters
Optimized performance and more quality crop output are key demands from customers of combine harvesters. At the same time, legislation is imposing rules on 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 provide you several 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 production. Bumps, shocks, vibration, fluctuating temperatures, humidity, dust, and even electromagnetic radiation are tested to ensure all products meet certification requirements.
Get intelligent feedback and improve safety
The integrated electronics in the LINAK actuators offer 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 cabin. This increases efficiency and improves safety significantly.
Stay cost-efficient and environmentally-friendly
Using electric actuators not only saves you the cost of actuator maintenance but also gives you controls that are more precise. The low energy consumption – especially when actuators are on standby – allows your vehicle to optimize fuel consumption and become more environmentally-friendly overall. In addition, the risk of pollution from oil-leaking hoses is non-existent.
