Electric actuators play a pivotal role in ventilation systems/climate control by enabling precise control and automation of air dampers, louvers, and vents. This allows for dynamic adjustment of airflow rates and direction, responding effectively to changing environmental conditions and user requirements.
Tilt windows utilize linear actuators to provide precise control, advanced automation, and robust safety features. They streamline operations by adjusting the tilt angle, controlling the opening and closing mechanisms, and integrating with automated systems, ensuring consistent and efficient window management.

CASE STUDY
UV Hammer for Dimer
Dimer UV are experts in inventing cutting-edge germicidal UV light disinfection systems. The company's mission is to set new, higher standards for public health in transportation and shared spaces.
When developing the UV Hammer, Dimer needed to find the right linear actuator to maneuver the unit’s UVC wing assembly. Other suppliers Dimer worked with in the past were not only more expensive and less reliable, but also unwilling to troubleshoot issues when they arose. From there, Dimer turned to Progressive Automations.
