The EU-funded SMARTACT-2-3 project has developed efficient electric motor technology, which could drastically reduce the amount of energy necessary to power a wide range of daily applications.
The EU-funded SMARTACT-2-3 project was set up to build on the success of SMARTACT-1, coordinated by The Smart Actuator Company in the UK. Phase 1 had successfully developed smart, electrically powered actuators (RIFT Driven® actuators), the first of which was delivered to market in early 2013.
