Tough actuator solutions for forage harvesters
Durability and sheer strength are the keywords when it comes to forage harvesters today. Cutting anything from grass or corn to willow trees for woody biomass also calls for immense flexibility, and as the season extends over different crops so does the demand for robust solutions. Using electric actuator solutions, you will gain several advantages:
- Minimize maintenance and prolong durability
- Get intelligent feedback to optimize performance
- Improve safety
The increased demand for more sustainable energy sources has brought woody biomass into focus around the world. Species such as the willow and poplar have proven to be very efficient. However, to harvest these materials equipment needs to be significantly more robust. On forage harvesters, LINAK actuators can do the job of adjusting crop accelerators and corn crackers. Solutions allow the driver to monitor and optimize output as well as to adjust the seat and the steering wheel to improve ergonomics.
Have a durable and maintenance-free solution
Leaving out any weak spots by removing hoses, pumps and compressors from the equation reduces the need for maintenance in itself. In addition, LINAK actuators are tested thoroughly prior to release to ensure durability even in rough environments. Combined, this means a long lifetime with minimal downtime for maintenance and repairs.
Get flexibility and precision with intelligent actuators
LINAK actuator solutions come with built-in intelligence able to send BUS communication feedback to any control system. This means the driver can monitor and adjust positions to optimize output while working, and easily adjust equipment for different purposes.
Create a safer place to work
Being able to monitor and control everything from the driver’s seat improves safety in itself. But even in the event the need for manual intervention occurs, LINAK actuators are safer as they do not rely on engine power to work. In addition, LINAK solutions are low-energy with standby consumption close to zero.
