Tolomatic Video Takes a Humorous Look at the History of Linear Actuation
From prehistory to modern times, the video documents how linear actuation has evolved into today’s integrated SmartActuator for industrial motion-control applications.
Hamel, MN (Vocus/PRWEB ) October 28, 2009 -- Tolomatic takes a light-hearted look at the evolution of linear actuation and motion control in a new video, “A History of Linear Actuation,” now available on YouTube. Featuring a caveman, a medieval battering ram and Rube Goldberg-style inventions, the video is a timeline of how man has attempted to solve linear actuation problems through the ages.
The present-day solution demonstrates how far we’ve come. The new Tolomatic rod-style SmartActuator integrates a servomotor, drive, controller and linear actuator into an all-in-one package. The SmartActuator delivers 100-percent duty-cycle performance in an integrated package that is half the cost of traditional electric actuator systems. It also reduces engineering and installation time.
