ACTUATOR

There is a colossal number of very different applications in the
industrial sector. To ensure that we focus on exactly the application
you need we have divided the industrial market into three segments,
which share some of the same characteristics and requirements for
linear actuators: MOBILE, MACHINERY & WORKSPACE, and BUILDING
& CONSTRUCTION

LINAK has a wide experience in integrating actuators into applications
and developing solutions, which fit discretely into work processes

- so do not hesitate to contact us.

A HISTORY OF TRADITION
AND INNOVATION

LINAK has gone through a remarkable

transformation since being established

back in 1907. When Bent Jensen, CEO

and Owner took over the company in

1976 he brought a brand new idea with

him. An idea which led to the develop-

ment of the very first linear actuator

in 1980.

It soon became obvious that this new

invention had an even larger potential

than anyone could have imagined. The

linear actuator was going to facilitate

ergonomic improvements in workplaces

as diverse as offices, hospitals, comfort

furniture, farms, and industry.

Throughout this process of improve-

ment and transformation, LINAK’s com-

mitment to quality remains the same.

The quality of our products affect the

quality of people’s lives, and we are

very much aware of our responsibility.

All products are thoroughly tested

according to the most demanding

standards, and all assembly processes

utilize modern technologies.

As we have grown, so has our network

of international offices around the

world. Today we are present in 35

countries across the globe.
