Moving Coil Actuator Applications
SMAC electronic actuators are used widely in automotive, SMT, robotics, pharmaceutical, medical assembly, laser cutting, high speed scanning, glass cutting, dispensing, switch testing, spot welding, soldering, and measuring applications to name but a few.

Assembly Applications
SMAC pick and place actuators are unique, as they enable total programmability of speed, position and force all at the same time, with an exceptional degree of accuracy and repeatability. SMAC's unique "Soft-Land" function enables the unit to gently land on a delicate component with a controlled force to avoid damage to both the component and the actuator.

Electronic Applications
The SMAC actuators are compact, lightweight, extremely fast and accurate, offering a combination of force, position and velocity control in both the linear and rotary axis at the same time. They also offer the option of a vacuum pick-up facility. This makes the actuators ideal for the switch testing of a variety of applications such as mobile phones, PDAs, touch screens and the insertion and inspection of ICs, to name just a few.

Glassmaking Applications
SMAC electric actuators incorporate a patented "Soft-Land" capability, which is very useful when applied to brittle materials. The force programmability works over the complete stroke, so the same force can be applied through the stroke.

Packaging Applications
SMAC actuators are often used in packaging applications including bottling, labeling, and product placement for blister packaging. Precise and repeatable control of force and stroke, along with high operating speeds, make our linear and linear/rotary actuators ideal for many packaging lines.

Medical & Scientific Applications
SMAC's newly-developed high precision actuator with resolution of five nanometers allows for precision positioning and placement for critical scientific applications. These precise devices eliminate incremental errors that come with the use of open-loop actuators. SMAC's precision actuators are fully close-looped and provide extremely accurate position data and positioning capability with resolution as high as five nanometers.

Multi-Axis Applications
Complex programming is not required, as the user can simply manually trace the 3D path required by the actuators, which is then automatically stored in the controller's memory. The systems also utilize linear interpolation, which enables a constant speed while following the chosen XYZ axis contour. A few ideal applications include measuring and testing (QC), depositing, machining, scoring and cutting.
