Precise, efficient and bendable in application
Our electric actuators are the industrial all-rounders of modern manufacturing

Electric actuators are becoming increasingly important in industry, mechanical engineering and automation. They combine mechanical force with electrical precision and impress with their low-maintenance operating characteristics. Thanks to their versatility, our electric actuators can be used in a wide variety of application ranges. Where exactly? We have compiled the most important ranges for you.

Pressing and joining processes: When pressing bearing bushes, bolts and seals, as well as when joining metal and plastic parts, our electric actuators enable exact pressing strokes and pressing forces with high precision and repeat accuracy. Precise force control and process control ensure that every process step runs precisely and reliably. At the same time, they save energy and reduce maintenance effort.

Bending processes: In automated production lines, electric actuators support the bending of pipes, wires or sheet metal parts with variable radii. They also enable adaptive bending processes with material recognition. This allows the force and position to be dynamically adjusted for different materials. This increases flexibility and quality in production and supports highly automated processes.

Lifting and positioning systems: Electric actuators are used for height adjustment of work tables, palletising or packaging systems. They move loads in assembly lines or test cells reliably and energy-efficiently. Integratable safety functions ensure that positions are held reliably even in the event of a power failure. In sensitive ranges such as medical technology or food production, they work hygienically and reliably reproducibly.

pick&place: Electric actuators enable precise pick-up and deposit positions for handling tasks, even with small or sensitive components. Dynamic control allows for short cycle times, while integrable sensor technology ensures position and status feedback.

Food and beverage industry: Electric actuators perform precise labelling, even on irregular or moving objects. They enable a constant, adjustable pressure force to prevent damage or deformation of sensitive packaging. Their flexibility also allows quick changeovers for different product sizes.

Packaging industry: Electric actuators are used in packaging machines to erect and fold cartons or close lids. The movements can be easily reprogrammed without the need for mechanical modifications.

"Our electric actuators offer a unique combination of precision, efficiency and flexibility, combined with low maintenance. They are not only an innovative drive solution, but also open up new possibilities for automated processes in almost all branches of industry. They can therefore set a new standard in modern manufacturing and automation technology," explains Ilja Dreher, head of development for the new HIWN electric actuator.
