MOTION CONTROL AT THE SPEED OF TECHNOLOGY™
Agriculture & Forestry
Advanced agricultural automation is no longer a future requirement; it is a necessity driven by the need for precision farming and the desire to transform machines into all-electric solutions. We have the expertise to help you implement a full solution, from controls and HMI's to motors and actuators. Connectivity, automation and data analysis offer a strategic competitive advantage to the farmer of the future.
Automated vertical farming is made possible by efficient automation. Sophisticated robotic solutions like cartesian systems coupled with a distributed controls architecture are transforming the industry. They track the health and quality of the plants, collect images for analysis, and move samples around.
Demanding applications in the forestry and lumber industry have long been the staple of hydraulic actuators. Today's heavy duty and rugged electric actuators have the force density to meet application requirements and do so safely and efficiently. Sealed actuators are, clean, quiet, low maintenance and maintain their performance over the long-term.
When you have a challenging project, Electromate is ready to help. We have over 200 years of automation and motion control experience to help you find the perfect solution.
