Many LINAK® actuators used in agricultural or industrial applications come with a printed circuit board (PCB) with integrated controller (IC), supporting various BUS protocols. At the Actuator Academy™, you can learn what difference the right PCB makes, how a clutch can protect the industrial machinery, and how the right cables and plugs can optimise the actuator’s performance.

The spindle – a seemingly simple component. However, it is in fact the backbone of an electric linear actuator. The same is true about actuator gears. At the LINAK® Actuator Academy™ you can learn more about both the spindles and the gears of industrial actuators, and how they are directly related to the actuator efficiency and performance as well as service life.

The LINAK®-Danfoss® collaboration makes it possible for engineers to add electric actuators when designing intelligent off-highway vehicles and other heavy-duty vehicles.

It is called PLUS+1 – it is a unique systems development platform for engineers creating intelligent off-highway vehicles built to cope with harsh conditions in outdoor environments. A new software extension to the tool, makes it possible to add LINAK actuators as easy as drag and drop.

To ensure a long service life for the actuator, you need to have the right motor. For many powerful actuators, a reliable brake system is also a requirement. And finally, the housing covering the two is crucial. At LINAK® Actuator Academy™, you can learn more about optimal motor efficiency, what type of brakes you need, and the advantages of aluminium and plastic housings, respectively.

A LINAK® electric linear actuator with a brushless DC motor takes performance to new heights. It ensures smooth and effective operation throughout a long service life in even the most demanding applications.

The main purpose of the comprehensive testing of our actuators is to ensure that you can depend on your actuator to perform reliably throughout its service life. All industrial LINAK® actuators undergo thorough testing inside and out. Watch the videos on this page to learn about the LINAK testing programmes covering all actuators prior to release, including shock and vibration, mechanical durability, temperature, humidity, salt, and chemical IP testing.

Here you can find information about printed circuit boards (PCBs) and their functionalities related to the performance of a LINAK® linear electric actuator. Learn about PCBs with integrated controllers and BUS communications and the features they have in common.
