The Electro-Thermal Actuator (ETA) is a two chambered device that converts electrical energy input into mechanical motion output by employing a self-regulating heater to create rapid vaporization of a di-electric fluid. One end of the heater chamber is sealed by a rolling diaphragm which is displaced under pressure and extends a piston rod located in a second chamber. An internal return spring retracts the piston after power is eliminated. These unique, patented actuators create a large output force from a compact, lightweight and economical package.

Over 8,000,000 of these units have been used to engage automotive four-wheel drive systems, control refrigerator ice-dispensing mechanisms, maintain bleed-air pressure on corporate jets, and open/close dampers and louvers in HVAC systems worldwide.

Thermo-Magnetic Actuator™


(patent pending)

Thermotion's Thermo-Magnetic Actuator was developed with one specific goal: to build an actuator that combines the best of two worlds — thermo-electric force and electro-magnetic holding.

Thermotion Corporation introduces the new Thermo-Magnetic Actuator™. This self-holding actuator combines the high output force of an Electro-Thermal Actuator with the low power consumption holding capability of electro-magnetic technology.

 

Stroke Length Up to 1in. (25.4mm)
Force Output Up to 10lbs. (4.5Kg)
Holding Force

Up to 7lbs. (3.2Kg)
(less than 5 watts)

SMART™ Actuator

Coming Soon!



Thermotion's new Shape Memory Alloy Responsive Technology (SMART) represents the latest in motion technology development. SMART Actuators are based upon the metallurgical phenomenon first noted in the 1930's wherein certain metal alloys exhibit a "memory" when heated above a critical temperature. Recent technological developments have allowed for significant improvement in response time, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
