Industrial manufacturing processes require linear actuators and linear motors with better performance than existing ones to meet all the requirements of the trend towards automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies and processes (Industry 4.0). Linear motors simply need to be faster, quieter and maintenance-free.

DG Motion is developing Hyper Drive, an extremely efficient next-generation linear actuator and linear motor for the needs of the aforementioned problem, which will be in line with the latest development guidelines for synchronous linear motors with permanent magnet. They will have 10% better performance, will be 20-30% cheaper due to new technology and will have a 3% better efficiency.
