##### Consistency
The choice of housing and sealing materials, as well as lubricants, are optimally matched to the respective application and ensure consistent operation without unexpected plant downtime.
##### Safety
Especially in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, our hygienic design products offer the necessary level of safety for the manufacturing process.
##### Greater freedom
Reliable drive technology requires none of encapsulation or enclosure. This creates new freedom for your design.
> With our hygienic design servo actuators, you can meet the high requirements—without compromise.
Our servo actuators for special environmental conditions are sized to operate reliably even under harsh external influences.
### Materials
Robust, corrosion resistant materials—including stainless steel—increase resistance to moisture, cleaning agents, and environmental influences. Smooth surfaces facilitate cleaning under demanding operating conditions.
### High protection classes
Servo actuators with increased protection classes are sized for use in humid, wet, or cleaning-intensive environments. They offer reliable protection against the ingress of water and dirt – even during demanding cleaning processes such as high-pressure or hot water cleaning.
### System compatibility
The servo actuators are compatible with common servo controllers and can be flexibly integrated into different machine and system concepts.
### Open machine layout
Our servo actuators enable open machine layouts to be implemented without additional protective housings. This allows for compact, flexible, and maintenance-friendly machine concepts.
Applications with special environmental conditions—such as in the food and pharmaceutical industries, in packaging technology, or in cleaning-intensive industrial processes—have increased requirements for cleanliness, operational safety, and efficiency. Servo actuators for these areas of application are specially sized to function reliably even in humid conditions, during regular cleaning, or when using aggressive media.
Robust, corrosion resistant materials, including stainless steel, and smooth, contoured surfaces support effective cleaning and reduce deposits. This makes the actuators suitable for use in washing and spraying areas, even with high-pressure or chemical cleaning.
The compact integration of planetary gearboxes and synchronous servo motors enables high power density in a small installation space. This creates the basis for flexible machine concepts, such as open machine layouts, without compromising on protection and performance.
High protection classes such as IP69K, a wide range of encoder options, and international approvals make these servo actuators a future-proof solution for demanding production environments where environmental conditions, cleanability, and drive technology are equally important.
