Micro Linear Actuators
WHY CHOOSE A MICRO LINEAR ACTUATOR?
With stroke length options measuring from 0.5” to 12” our micro actuators can fit into the most limited of spaces without compromising on performance. Our servo motor options have dynamic force ratings that can reach up to 22.48lbs.
Compact
These actuators have a low current draw, allowing users to install more units to a single control box without any additional equipment.
Current Draw
Thanks to the servo motor inside the PA-12-R and PA-12-T, their precision accuracy goes up to 100um. Communications such as RS-485 or TTL-PWM gives you full control over their position, speed, and synchronized movement.
Precision
POPULAR MICRO LINEAR ACTUATOR APPLICATIONS
Our micro linear actuators are seen in a variety of robotic systems. These range from manufacturing systems, where a micro actuator is a core component of a larger mechanism, to assisting in medical fields. Micro linear actuators in robots is a growing, exciting industry that is only going to get more and more advanced.
Robotics
The automotive industry utilizes micro linear actuators in many areas of vehicle manufacturing and optimization. One such area is custom fabrication, where a micro actuator is used to automate car doors, so they open automatically, headlight automation, spoiler-wing tilt, swivel mirror motion, and so on.
Automotive
A micro electric linear actuator can be installed into multiple areas of your home and office to optimize and automate them where possible. Cabinets and shelving are popular applications that can be automated, letting the shelf come to you instead of reaching or moving racks in a cabinet for space optimization.
