Electrohydraulic actuators optimize seed depth

January 5, 2021 By Mary Gannon

The Thomson H-Track electrohydraulic linear actuator enabled Graham Electric to implement a compact, wireless electric seed depth management system that could pay for itself within the first year of operation.

Designers for heavy duty motion control applications have traditionally specified hydraulic cylinders for their high speed, heavy load handling and resilience. However, recent advancements that embed hydraulic technology within electric linear actuators have been delivering the benefits of hydraulics without common drawbacks. A prime example of this conversion has been the optimization of seed depth […]
