Actuators and Servoactuators

Custom Electric Linear Servoactuators

Typical customizations include:

  • Motor modifications such as optimized motor winding for voltage range, peak power requirements, low cogging designs and custom feedback requirements
  • Optimized packaging to reduce envelope size or to minimize complexity by reducing the number of parts and integrating the actuation components into customer’s machine or hardware
  • Meeting special performance requirements such as high bandwidth, high acceleration, high force, high speed, high duty cycle long life, high accuracy and other key requirements
  • Building-in special operating characteristics such as extremely smooth operation low acoustic noise and low backdrive force
  • Providing for other special needs such as environmental extremes (temperatures, humidity or vibration), explosion proof designs, fail safe architectures, and integrated snubbing.

Some examples of highly specialized actuators include:

Electric Linear Servoactuators for Oil and Gas Exploration

Flight Simulation Motion Base Systems featuring high performance electric actuators with long stroke lengths

Explosion-proof actuators for Gas, Steam and Hydro Turbines

Wimbledon - Moog's Design Is Moving On Up

Learn about the control architecture Moog developed for the actuated elements of a moving roof on the Centre Court at Wimbledon in the United Kingdom. The project entailed supplying 148 axes of control with products and software for closed-loop control for the roof movement. Engineers from 6 countries worked together from definition of requirements to final implementation to on-going support to provide a truly collaborative solution for a very special customer.
