The healthcare sector is facing a number of challenges such as aging population, obesity and other lifestyle diseases. There will be more and more people in need of care and at the same time fewer people to do the caring.

Furthermore, the development in direction of obesity will require higher safety loads in the applications for care. This calls for healthcare applications that are optimised in regards to efficiency, reliability and high lifting forces.

The LA40 will add value to applications and helps the manufacturers of healthcare equipment gain a competitive edge on the market.

The LA40 has been developed on the basis of our extensive knowledge and long experience in actuator development. The LA40 gives you a unique combination of features:

  • High speed
  • Robust construction
  • High IP degree IPX6 and IPx6 Washable
  • Low noise level
  • Compact design for flexible mounting
  • Cleaning friendly design
  • Available in a 6000 N and an 8000 N version
  • New LINAK patented gear and brake principle offering increased efficiency

All of the above ensures better performance for the benefit of both OEM’s and caregivers.
