The Scotch Yoke Pneumatic Actuator adopts a pneumatic cylinder piston driving mechanism that converts linear motion into rotary torque through a scotch yoke structure. Compared with rack and pinion designs, it provides higher output torque under the same volume, making it ideal for large-diameter and high-pressure valves such as ball valves, butterfly valves, and eccentric rotary valves.
The scotch yoke transmission structure features low mechanical clearance, accurate positioning, and excellent torque output performance. The internal low-friction wear-resistant bushings effectively reduce mechanical losses and extend service life. Single-acting and double-acting configurations are available, with the single-acting type equipped with return springs to achieve automatic safety reset after air supply failure.
The housing is manufactured from aluminum alloy with hard anodized surface treatment, providing strong corrosion resistance and reliable outdoor operation capability. With a standard 0°–90° rotary stroke, the actuator supports quick switching between positive and reverse operation modes and can be equipped with valve positioners, solenoid valves, and limit switches for complete automation control.
Application Areas:
Large chemical industry shut-off valves, high-temperature power plant butterfly valves, long-distance oil and gas pipeline ball valves, metallurgical large-diameter pipeline systems, wastewater treatment rotary valves, and new energy high-pressure fluid control equipment.
Huizheng Independent Manufacturing & Quality Control Advantages
Huizheng manufactures key actuator components through independent mold development and precision machining. The company operates under a complete ISO9001 quality management system and holds industry certifications including TS special equipment manufacturing qualification, CE, EAC, and SIL3.
The factory is equipped with CNC machining centers, automated assembly lines, torque endurance testing equipment, and air leakage testing systems. Core components including the scotch yoke mechanism, piston, and actuator housing are produced in-house to ensure stable quality and consistent performance.
Each actuator undergoes torque testing, air tightness inspection, and repeated operation durability testing before shipment. Standard models are maintained in inventory and can be delivered together with matching valves within approximately 10 days for regular working conditions. Customized high-torque models can be arranged according to project requirements.
