Specialty technology "Actuator"
Introduction of a flexible artificial muscle actuator powered by shape memory alloy!
At KRI Corporation, we are engaged in the research and development of flexible artificial muscle actuators powered by shape memory alloys. We have realized a flexible and powerful bidirectional drive actuator based on artificial muscles made from shape memory alloys that generate strong force and displacement, combined with polymer materials in a composite structure. Based on the shape memory alloy artificial muscles currently under development, we will create actuators suitable for each customer's target. 【Technical Features】 ■ Utilizes shape memory alloys as a power source, capable of exerting thousands of times the force of human muscles ■ Generates flexibility, strong force, and large displacement through the combination with flexible materials such as polymers ■ Achieves simple two-way drive without the need for external load mechanisms by utilizing the elastic force of flexible materials *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
