To help farmers move toward more profitable "precision" farming techniques, OEMs are moving toward electromechanical actuation of applications previously controlled hydraulically or manually.
SKF actuators for off-highway and outdoor equipment are helping to smooth the transition for both groups. Sized as easy-to-mount, "drop-in" replacements, SKF actuators are engineered and tested for reliable, virtually maintenance-free performance in the field.
