efficiency gained during changeover activities, plus the added energy efficiency when using electric actuators, the higher initial component costs are soon negated. SMC, which is traditionally
recognised as the world leaders in pneumatic technology, has embraced the development of electric actuators and now has one of the most impressive ranges of electric drive and control ranges around. SMC’s latest catalogue of electric actuators and controllers has over 900 pages of product information to help you select the right solution. Today it can offer customers simple, easy to programme and easy to use controllers for the majority of the electric actuator range or technically advanced high performance Series LEY, LEYG, LEF and LEJ options for use in more demanding applications.

philosophy then why not take advantage of SMC’s motor-less option?
