Unleashing Linear Servo Press Technology
An overview of press technologies & considerations for linear servo presses in the manufacturing environment.
Discover how servo-electric press technologies offer significant advantages in precision, programmability, energy efficiency, reliability, and flexibility compared to hydraulic machines.
Benefits of Electric Linear Motion Systems over Hydraulic Systems
- Control, Feedback & Data Collection: An actuator’s servo motor/drive system provides precise measurement and control of position, speed, acceleration, and force (torque). This information is available on a continuous basis for tracking and auditing purposes.
- Life and Maintenance: Properly sized and applied electric actuators have a long service life and require minimal maintenance.
- Safety: Light curtain, 2 hand control, guarding configurations available.
- Environmental Concerns: Electric actuators do not contain fluids and therefore do not pose the contamination hazard of hydraulic systems. In addition, temperature fluctuations have less impact on electric actuators.

Customer Success Stories
Wheel Bearing Press
The servo controlled RSX actuator allowed the OEM to create quick and easy changeover procedures to accommodate any wheel size.
Powertrain Assembly
Although the hydraulic cylinders could achieve the forces required for the application, they could not deliver the force repeatability and accuracy to achieve a high level of part quality.
Air Bag Production
With a precise servo controlled electric actuator system, the OEM was able to completely eliminate defective parts from the pressing operation.
