On August 19, 2025, ANTUATOR celebrates its 15th anniversary. Fifteen years ago we were a small team with a big goal; today we’re a trusted partner in electric linear actuators and smart motion solutions for the marine, RV/camper, and sunshade/automation industries. The theme of our anniversary—“Responsibility Creates the Irreplaceable”—captures how we work, build, and serve.
In 2010, we transformed from traditional trading to self-developed pen-style electric linear actuators. With limited funds and a tiny office, we built the foundation for five core actuator series and set our mission:
“To match world-class companies with the best-value core linear actuation devices and solutions.”
Those early years were not easy. But cross-trained, multi-skilled teammates and a clear mission kept us moving.
By 2018 we moved from contract manufacturing to a modern factory that integrates R&D + production. Revenues grew and our team expanded. During the toughest pandemic months, we upheld a simple promise: no layoffs, no salary cuts, and on-time payroll. When a company keeps people in mind, people keep responsibility on their shoulders.
Starting in 2021 we refined our strategy and, in 2022, focused on three key niches. In 2024, we hit our annual goal for the first time. When orders surged, our production lines turned the “impossible” into on-time delivery. Responsibility isn’t a solo act—it’s a two-way commitment between ANTUATOR and every ANTUATOR teammate.
In a fast-moving market, our confidence rests on brand credibility and product strength.
Brand over price wars: We refuse low-price races to the bottom. We invest in innovation and pursue a long-term vision—to make ANTUATOR a truly “irreplaceable” brand in linear motion.
Relentless product progress: Today we offer five actuator series plus two RV roof-lift solutions. Over 100 patents have been filed to date. On average, 8% of annual revenue goes into R&D. We iterate quickly—even replacing our own products when better designs emerge. Many can copy the look; few match the precision, reliability, and application fit.
Marine/Yacht: Trim tab actuators, hatches, windows, tower lifts—built for demanding environments, with IP67/IP69K options where needed.
RV & Camper: Electric pop-up/roof-lift systems engineered for safety, stability, and ease of integration.
Sunshade & Automation: Slim, pen-style actuators that are easy to integrate into modern equipment.
At 15, ANTUATOR is stepping into maturity. We will shoulder greater expectations—from society, customers, and our team—by holding fast to our mission:
To match world-class companies with the best-value core linear actuation devices and solutions.
Responsibility helps us go farther. Irreplaceability keeps us standing tall.
