The birth of a brilliant idea

LINAK is a family business. In 1976, Bent Jensen took over the family company founded by his grandfather, and began developing the electric linear actuator. Today, LINAK develops and manufactures electric actuator systems that provide smooth, reliable movement across a wide range of applications. The solutions are used in three main areas, where precise movement supports ergonomics and functionality.

Number of employees

LINAK employs more than 2,500 skilled employees globally. From development and production to sales and support, teams work together to develop innovative actuator solutions used in a wide range of applications, helping improve everyday life and working environments.
