In the modern industry efficiency is what the user looking for, by using a pneumatics in one of the most contanimated industry is risk and inefficient. Contamination is the highest contribution of failure in pneumatics system, because contamination surely cause a leak and 45% of pneumatics failure are caused by leaking. Contamination can also depends on the size of the contaminator the more small the size the more likely it to cut through the seals and cause a cut that makes the system will loss it’s pressure and force. Electric actuatos is a safer choice because no risk in cobtamination problem. To test the compatibility of the design of the electric actuator by using the 3D modelling software and Simulink to provide a movement result and compare it with the requirement from the pneumatics. From the simulation result, it was shown that the electric actuator could compete with the pneumatic actuator in response speed, but not in torque magnitude.
