In the marine industry, actuators are used in everything from doors, windows and ladders to heavy duty engine hatches. Our actuators can make the mast on a marine vessel collapsible automatically, which can help with creating more clearance under bridges. They can also provide more movement to bow and stern thrusters, increasing maneuverability. More marine applications include valve regulation, radar arches, water jet propulsion or bathing platforms. Other than mechanical uses, electric actuators can also provide more luxurious touches to sea vessels such as automated TVs or furniture in the boats interior.
Industry Features
Marine automation has started to thrive as an industry, in large part because it has taken full advantage of linear automation technology. As one of the leading waterproof actuator manufacturers and marine actuator suppliers, we know electric actuators can automate many different tasks on the exterior of marine vessels, as well as the interior. Automating important tasks like opening large engine hatches not only makes your life easier, it improves safety when you need quick access for engine adjustments. That is just one of the many imperative tasks that can be automated on a marine vessel with a waterproof linear actuator.
Our marine actuators are all water resistant, ensuring they will be able to function properly when surrounded by the water and other outdoor elements. Certain 12v waterproof linear actuator models are fully submersible and functional under water, able to extend and retract while submerged for extended periods of time. They also feature high ingress protection ratings, as high as IP67M, so they can function reliably when exposed to liquids.
Sea vessels need to be able to operate reliably without much maintenance. Electric marine actuators are not only simple to install, they also require almost no maintenance once integrated into a control system. They are internally lubricated, meaning they do not require any extra fluids or consistent upkeep checks and making them leak free, ideal for something like a boat hatch actuator.
The lack of hydraulic oil or other potentially harmful fluids in our boat actuators ensures the marine environment stays safe and clean. The last thing we want is to pollute the environment with hazardous oils/fluids that come from certain pieces of hydraulic machinery, which is why electric actuators are the cleanest, as well as the most cost efficient choice for operating marine vessels.
