Throttle Control
The throttle is the key linkage between man and mobile off-highway machine, and Thomson electric linear actuators give operators an unprecedented range of control, for greater productivity, safety and sustainability.
Reduced Design Costs
- Flexible potentiometer models allow easy interfacing, and multiple speed and feedback options add design flexibility.
- Compatible with multiple engine platforms as an add-on, and optional mounting brackets reduce design time.
Reduced Installation Costs
- Optional mounting brackets and a variety of mounting accessories make installation easy.
- Actuator can be placed for easy installation; no direct access needed for maintenance, and there's no need to accommodate the large bend radius of wire-wound throttle cables.
Reduced Operating Costs
- Automatically allows return to low speed and rapid resumption of operating speed for economy and lower emissions.
- High cycle life, maintenance-free lifetime lubrication and high tolerance of heat, vibration and moisture.
Increased Safety and Productivity
- Automatic speed adjustments, lower fuel consumption and greater noise management reduce downtime and operator fatigue.
- Actuators allow much more ergonomic location of controls for less operator fatigue and more agile operation.
