Powerful actuators

Heavy-duty linear force

Cascade Drives’ electromechanical linear actuators are made for heavy-duty applications where high load in combination with high speed are key features. Thanks to low internal inertia, acceleration and deacceleration use a minimum of energy. Unlike any other electromechanical actuators, Cascade Drives’ actuators can handle shock loads. It is now possible to electrify functions like lifting, tilting and side shift.

Together with Kalmar Trucks we electrified the lift function of a Kalmar empty container handler. See the result in the video!

The best actuators for heavy-duty applications

Compact design

Compact solution for plug-and-play installation without the need for auxiliary mechanical systems.

Long life

Designed for life-long operation with negligible maintenance requirements.

Fast

Superior travel speed allows for improved productivity.

Optimized load cycle

Acceleration, travel and deceleration profile curves are easily tailored for specific applications to optimize energy use.

Positioning

Options for unlimited predefined go-to-positions available thanks to built-in positioning encoders.

Clean

No hydraulic fluids mean no risk of oil spills.
