Advanced actuator Technology

Tesar Power™ is a proprietary geartrain technology to enable the next generation of electromechanical actuators (EMAs) with unparalelled torque and precision. Tesar Power™ is the culmination of over 20 years of invention and seven fully awarded U.S. Patents.

Benefits of tesar power™

Tesar Power™ combines a patented geartrain configuration and novel tooth geometry to provide numerous advantages over traditional electro-mechanical actuators (EMAs).

Higher Torque Density: Tesar Power™ enables extremely high ratios—250:1 or greater—in a single reduction stage to enable world-leading torque density. As a result, Tesar Power™ can produce significantly more torque within a given volume than anything else on the market.

Higher Load Capacity: The Tesar Power™ design includes multiple tooth contacts and optimized force paths to handle loads far greater than status quo EMAs.

Precision Control: Tesar Power™ actuators have near-zero backlash under all load conditions enabling new standards for precision control.

what can tesar power™ do for you

Hydraulic Actuator Replacement: Tesar Power™ combines the power output of hydraulic actuators with the benefits of EMAs—truly the best of both worlds. Replacing hydraulic actuators with Tesar Power™ actuators provides superior performance while reducing volume, weight, maintenance, and system complexity.

High Load Precision Control: Tesar Power™ enables a novel class of EMAs that can handle hydraulic loads with unparalleled control and precision―opening up a range of actuator applications never before possible. What will you build with Tesar Power™?

When Can I Get Tesar Power™

The first Tesar Power™ prototype is under contract to be built and tested in 2025. This test will demonstrate a Tesar Power™ actuator replacing a hydraulic piston.  The prototype is ultimately intended to replace hydraulic actuators for jet blast deflectors on U.S. Navy carriers. Additional defense prototypes will kick off in 2025.

We are actively looking for additional early-stage prototypes for Tesar Power™. Contact us to learn more and see if Tesar Power™ can solve your actuation problem.
