Packing Equipment

RND Automation

Kyntronics worked with our engineers to develop a custom actuator that fit our space and duty cycle requirements. The closed loop system not only gives us the power we need for rigid material cutting but the servo control provides for accurate speed and acceleration control. Force feedback allows us to monitor die sharpness as well as provide data for FDA validation to our customers. We see a great future using these actuators on all our die cut platforms.

Test Equipment

Chant Engineering Co. Inc.

The biggest advantage of Kyntronics’ SHA was the very nature of the system’s self-contained, modular configuration – delivering all required functionality and low-end force control we need for testing… it saved us many days of assembly / set-up / testing / tuning, and cost as well. Also, this system provides our customer the ability to test their products without using external hydraulic power which makes it very portable and manageable.

Metal Forming & Fabrication Equipment

Universal Metal Products

Working with Kyntronics was a great experience. This type of product is new to our company and they were very helpful and patient with any questions we had. We decided to install the optional HMI unit with the actuator making set up of our tooling painless. The parts we are forming among 6 tooling stations are very consistent hit after hit. The precision is greater than any other forming method we have used. We are overall very pleased with the actuators design and performance.
