Since its establishment in 1965, the Norbro brand has been recognized as a leading manufacturer of rack and pinion actuators in the industry. Today, the brand's success is reflected in its proven performance, long history, and extensive installed base. Norbro actuators are suitable for applications in the petrochemical, food and beverage, steel production, pharmaceutical, plastic manufacturing, and oil and gas industries. Norbro was the first manufacturer to incorporate support rods within its actuators. This design ensures that all side loads generated by the piston are transferred through bearings in the end caps rather than through the actuator body. Consequently, the bore of the actuator body serves only as a sealing surface rather than a bearing surface, thereby extending the service life of the actuator. With this unique feature, Norbro actuators distinguish themselves from standard rack and pinion designs by offering reliability, long service life, and high performance. Products include: NORBRO valve positioners, NORBRO actuators, and NORBRO valves.
