Electric cylinders and electric actuators

Electric cylinders are increasingly used as an alternative to pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders. Electric cylinders and actuators can be found in the food-, packaging-, automotive-, medical industry, and more. On this page you can see which types of electric linear cylinders we offer, what they are used for and what the benefits are.
