Actuator is adaptable to a range of applications
SKF says its new CASM100 electromechanical actuator offers exceptional flexibility for a broad range of applications. The product’s modular design offers a base platform with new modules planned for release over time to cater for future needs. The standardised interface between modules – similar to the concept of LEGO bricks – increases the unit’s flexibility and makes it backward compatible. This modularity design also offers the benefit of easy integration and fast assembly.
The actuator is said to consume up to 80% less energy than pneumatic alternatives and 50% compared to hydraulic solutions. It also uses fewer consumables because, in many applications, it is virtually maintenance-free.
