Motivation
Assistive devices, such as bionic limbs, exoskeletons, rehabilitation and other service robots need ‘muscle-equivalent’ motion control.
This need crosses over into established sectors heavily dependent on mobile systems, such as aerospace, med-tech and agriculture.
WaveDrives new actuation technology, incorporated in the SILA linear actuators, has been developed to address these needs.
* New SILA EC-205 electric actuator available
We are pleased to announce that the latest version of SILA electric actuator is available and ready for trial applications.
The SILA EC-205 Wavedrive has a number of upgraded design features providing:
- Reduction in size
- Reduced part count
- 2x speed of movement
- Reduced cogging torque
- Super quiet operation
- Minimal heat generation
- 1.5 kN of thrust at 48V
