Linear actuators for medical ventilators and respirators available in OEM quantities

By Danielle Collins | April 10, 2020

During the COVID-19 pandemic engineers and designers of medical devices are working 24/7 to design and manufacture critically needed life support and testing equipment. Moticont has a proud history of supplying precise, reliable voice coil linear actuators used in medical ventilators and respirators and will be especially quick to respond to the need for actuators in OEM quantities as well as requests for custom prototypes.

Moticont manufactures three lines of linear voice coil actuators ideally suited for medical ventilators, respirators, and dispensing of reagents. Each of the pictured actuators is a clean, reliable voice coil actuators with a guided shaft that is designed to couple directly to the load and, therefore, has zero backlash. The three lines are the GVCM series, SDLM series, and DDLM series.

Each of these lines of low-cost, clean, brushless, compact actuators features attributes critical to life support equipment: very low mean-time-between-failures (MTBF); extreme efficiency; low hysteresis for greater repeatability; highly controllable force, stroke length, and speed; low noise; maintenance-free; and easy integration into new or existing applications.

The GVCM and DDLM series of linear voice coil actuators can be used with a position sensor, and the SDLM series has an integral encoder. The DDLM and SDLM series are fully enclosed actuators.

For assistance in selecting the best linear actuator for a specific application, such as life support in ventilators or respirators, reagent dispensing, sampling, sorting, or assembly, contact the Moticont sales team.
