A42 3-Position Rotary Actuator

Rotomation A42 3-position actuator-extremely configurable, simple to operate to any position from any starting position
A42 3-Position Dual Rack Rotary Actuator

Overview

With over 30 times more torque capacity than our A032 3-Position Actuator and billions of standard possible configurations, our A42 three-position actuator has overall dimensions that are similar to those of its two-position counterpart, the A42 Rotary Actuator. Output torque is that of a single rack unit but it can rotate to any of its 3 positions in any sequence by simply activating the proper directional control valve.
