Kinetrol is the British specialist in rotary vane actuators — a compact quarter-turn design whose single moving vane gives smooth, precise modulating duty with long cycle life. The brand dominates niches like damper drive and modulating ball and butterfly duty.

Paired with Kinetrol’s own positioners, the vane actuator is a favourite where accurate, repeatable quarter-turn modulation matters — and its torsion-spring fail-safe variants extend the design into fail-safe service.
