Manufacturing micro actuators requires organised workstations, clear component identification and consistent assembly practices. We explain how the five stages of 5S help reduce the risk of assembly errors, control contamination and support traceability. Discover how sorting, visual management, cleaning, standardisation and sustained discipline contribute to more stable production processes at REGNER.
Precision machining plays a key role in actuator manufacturing. Following our visit to AMB Stuttgart 2026, we explore how component geometry, alignment and tolerances influence linear actuator performance. More than a decade of experience with DATRON technology supports our ability to develop, manufacture and validate our own designs.
REGNER developed the control handset for Drive Medical’s eTSE Toilet Stand-up Aid, which incorporates the RA42 linear actuator. This article explores the engineering decisions behind the system, including ergonomics for users with reduced hand strength, contact debounce filtering, IP67 sealing with a single gasket, poka yoke assembly tooling and technical documentation in accordance with ISO 14971 and IEC 62366-1.
On 26–27 August 2026, REGNER’s engineering team visited All About Automation Zürich, held alongside maintenance Schweiz at Messe Zürich, to take stock of the latest trends in motion control, collaborative robotics and mechatronics — and to compare them against REGNER’s own developments in diagnostic-ready linear actuators.
Choosing a microactuator for analytical instrumentation takes more than force, speed and stroke. These are the seven technical questions an OEM engineer should answer before deciding, drawn from REGNER’s experience with instrumentation manufacturers.
Oriol Garay, a Materials Engineering student at the UPC, has joined REGNER to work on an applied tribology project focused on the interface between the lead screw and the nut. The project will examine how surface treatments and finishes affect friction, wear and the functional repeatability of microactuators.
Expoquimia and Equiplast 2026 confirmed that water management has become a strategic priority for the process industries. This evolution calls for more compact, automated and reliable systems to monitor, dose and control fluids precisely in analytical instrumentation and treatment equipment.
