DESTACO 98W Electric Pivot Unit Review Summary
98W replaces air with an electric drive. The pivot angle is programmable over 360° with several easily adjusted positions, torque stays constant regardless of opening angle, and the unit self-locks with controlled acceleration, deceleration and early-cycle release. One unit covers four pneumatic sizes and fits where 125, 160 and 200 mm cylinder units were used, and it is lighter than pneumatic equivalents.
