Munitions assembly – Tolomatic
At a munitions assembly facility, large loads are moving along a rail system from assembly station to assembly station as automated guided vehicles transfer the product from station to station. Before finding Tolomatic they had no source for an electric actuator to accommodate the long transport length between stations with the amount of push and pull force required to move the parts along the assembly line.

Motion simulation – Tolomatic
A manufacturer of motion simulator machines wanted to replace an existing hydraulic system with an electric actuator to simulate vibrations (frequencies from 30-50 Hz) and other disturbances experienced in real world situations in aerospace and defense applications. Although the hydraulics could achieve the aggressive high frequency moves, the hydraulic system tended to leak, require regular maintenance and could be too loud in the training environment. Additionally, the manufacturer required an electric actuator solution without the use of external cooling systems such as water or oil to remove heat from the actuator.
