LINAK - We improve your life
Linear actuator movement might be the simplest
movement in the world. And yet, perfecting something
simple is one of the hardest challenges.
Since LINAK® founder Bent Jensen came up with theidea for the first electric actuator in order to help afriend in a wheelchair, every engineer and specialist
employed by LINAK has aimed to solve real-life
challenges for real people.

20Interfaces and protocols

The flexible LINAK® I/O™ interface enables
a range of movements and choice of
input control and data outputs. It offers
endless modifications for full control ofthe exact functionalities you need andlets you move swiftly from innovation toaction.

CANopen® is a communications protocolthat relies on the CiA 301 standard and is
one of the main network architectures
used in industries such as Railway, Agriculture, Heavy Truck & Bus, Marine,
Off-Highway and Factory Automation.

IO-Link® is a point-to-point industrial
network standard used to connect digitalsensors and actuators to an industrial
Fieldbus or Ethernet. IO-Link increases
efficiency and reduces downtime in e.g.
industrial automation and packaging
machinery.

CAN SAE J1939® is a set of standards
defining how ECUs (Electronic Control
Unit) communicate via CAN – offering acommon language for all manufacturers.
The protocol is widely used in mobile
off-highway machinery as it supports
smart automation.

PLUS+1® is a development tool whereengineers can add, move, drag and dropcomponents when designing modern
heavy-duty machinery. A software
extension makes it possible to add LINAK®
actuators to the platform as easy as dragand drop.

LIN bus is a cost-effective supplement
to CAN bus. The overall performanceand reliability of the network is lower
compared to CAN bus, but the protocol
is very suitable for non-criticalcomponents.

Modbus® RTU is a serial communications
protocol used for industrial electronic
devices, which is often connected to a
PLC. Using Modbus® RTU makes it easy tointegrate and maintain many deviceson the same network. Actuators with
Modbus® RTU can e.g. be used for industrial automation and solar tracking.

Modbus® TCP/IP is a protocol that enables
industrial devices, such as actuators, toconnect over Ethernet. It simplifies integration and maintenance of devices on
the same network, suitable for applications like HVAC systems, energy management, and factory automation.

Basic, Advanced
and Parallel

This interface is the first generation of IC™
and part of our IC Integrated Controller™
actuator range. It offers three levels of
options with different features.

Choose between Basic and Advanced control or opt for Parallel to move up to eight
actuators in parallel.

EtherNet/IP™ is a network protocolthat allows industrial devices, including
actuators, to communicate over Ethernet.
It supports real-time control and dataexchange, making it ideal for applications
like automated manufacturing, robotic
systems, and process control.

Configuration tools

LINAK Actuator Connect configurator helps you configure
actuators with IC Integrated Controller, when working with the
I/O interface. Adjust parameters such as start/stop settings, virtual
limits, and current limits, and read-out
real-time and historical usage data.

Download a free version ofActuator Connect.

The BusLink software can be used to configure actuators with IC
Integrated Controller, when working with other interfaces than I/O.
You can easily adjust parameters such as soft start/stop, virtual limits
and current limits.
You can also access historical usage data,
to analyse the performance of both theactuators and the application in which they
are installed.

Single Motor Driver

TR-EM-337A-PLI
Parallel Synchro Controller

TR-EM-322
BASIC – ventilation control unit

Designed for operation of a single
actuator. Protects the actuator andapplication, and disconnects theactuator’s motor if it exceeds apredefined power limit.

The synchronisation controller willkeep all motors at the same speed
and position. If a synchronisation
error exceeds the specified deviation threshold, all motors will stop.

Designed for powering the actuatorand its controller. The housing is
IP66 rated and therefore suitable foroutdoor applications.

TP1
Waterproof control

Designed to perform the opening
and closing movement of valves.
Easy installation.

The small and compact RF receiver
enables easy control of one
actuator. The small form factor
makes this device easy to
implement in your application.

Testing programme
In any industrial application, the actuator is just oneof many components, but that does not diminish theimportance of smooth and reliable operation. For thisreason, we ensure that every actuator leaving ourfactory undergoes a comprehensive 100% function test.

performed, please consult your local LINAK® office orrefer to the relevant actuator data sheet.
Our commitment to testing is your guarantee that yourelectric actuators will work reliably for many years.

Depending on the actuator type, various tests arecarried through. To get a detailed overview of the tests

Climatic tests:
In the climatic test the actuators
are tested to operate inextreme temperatures as well as
to endure rapid changes intemperature. In a dunk test, theactuators have to withstandrepeating temperaturefluctuations between +85oC to-40oC while maintaining its fullfunctionality and ingress
protection.
