Pneumatic rack and pinion actuators QUIFER are in the market for more than 40 years. These actuators are popular for their high resistance and durability and, in consequence, the reduction of the maintenance cost in the production lines. For that reason, our actuators are used in the more exigent markets and environments like oil and gas, offshore platforms or vessels.
The linking surfaces of the actuators are designed according ISO 5211 and VDI/VDE 3845. Design of the actuator is constructed according ISO9001:2008, IEC 61508:2010, LOM 05ATEX6032and European Pressure Equipments Directive 97/23/EC 3.10
