Business Profile

Established in 2018, KOMP-ACT (short for “Composite Actuators”) was founded by two aerospace engineers and a University Professor with backgrounds in actuators.



Initially specialized in the development of rotary motors and actuators using composite materials destined for the electric aircraft market, our mission shifted towards broader industrial applications after a Swiss-based manufacturer challenged us to develop a solution that would help save them energy costs, maintenance costs as well as limit micro-stops (i.e. “jams”) related to pneumatic actuator operation.



At KOMP-ACT, we manufacture the industry’s most compact, lightweight, cost-efficient electric actuators, grippers and accessories destined for the motion automation market. Our patented electric solutions designed for maximum reliability and performance can be easily integrated onto new machinery or retrofitted onto virtually any existing machinery where traditional pneumatic actuators are used. Our products are designed and manufactured in Switzerland.
