SILA_P8-B

Wavedrives’ novel SILA actuators are ultra-efficient and power-dense with patented non-contact transmission and unique characteristics, designed for clean, off-grid mobility.

 

SILA overcomes the limitations of electromechanical and fluidic actuation and offers a rich feature set to solve actuation problems and drive advanced motion-control solutions

High power density due to in-running stator, integrated transmission and high copper fill.
Sustained high efficiency due to removal of transmission friction and other losses.
Smooth, precise and reliable movement control due to high power density and efficiency.
Safe, robust and modular due to the compliant magnetic transmission, which enables actuators to work in parallel and prevents hard stops.
Very low maintenance: as no transmission wear, no lubrication, no sparks, passive cooling
Clean and near silent operation.
Free and predictable backdrive for energy regeneration and free-fall.
Compact linear form for design freedom and ease of integration.
Intrinsic real-time force feedback from current draw due to ultra-efficiency for contact sensing and telehaptics.
Scalability, flexibility and configurability for diverse applications
Lifetime cost and carbon reduction due to simplicity, efficiency, robustness, longevity, ease of manufacture low maintenance and improved fit to application/product needs.
