Meet TUAKA™

Sumitomo Drive Technologies' All-New Family of Innovative Actuators

The Tuaka family of actuators is highly reliable and safe with a broad quality base of knowledge and years of experience in development. System integration is made easy and cost-efficient with only a minimal amount of time required. The result is a faster time-to-market strategy. You can use our Tuaka Actuators in a variety of configurations, allowing for easier development.

COMING SOON IN 2023

Tuaka's base unit combines our well-known ECY gear with a powerful servo motor. The parts are perfectly matched for maximum performance. Whatever configuration is used, all components ensure a hollow shaft.

This actuator can incorporate either a single or double encoder system and has an efficient brake. The whole modular drive consists of a torque sensor and a reliable driver with an extendable safety system. All of this can be offered together with the highest possible level of integration--making the Tuaka one of the smallest solutions of its kind.

Due to its many configurations, the TuakaTM can be used in robotics and all kinds of precision applications. As a result of the system's flexibility, a multitude of combinations can be achieved for optimum performance. You have the freedom to focus on your core competency, while Sumitomo provides the optimal system solution for you.
