Mini Linear Actuators
WHY CHOOSE A MINI LINEAR ACTUATOR?
Our mini actuators can be quite compact at their smallest stroke of 1”, going up to 40”. Their dynamic force ratings range from 35 lbs all the way up to 450 lbs. Due to their compact quality, a brushless motor can also be installed into a mini actuator.
Compact
Our mini actuators have the advantage of a low current draw, allowing for the use of a single control box for multiple actuators.
Low Current Draw
Due to their range of capabilities, our mini electric actuators are considered extremely adaptable to any given application. This is seen in the range of force they can offer alongside certain models offering high IP ratings and waterproof protection.
Adaptable
POPULAR MINI LINEAR ACTUATOR APPLICATIONS
Mini linear actuators are extremely popular within the robotics field, often playing small parts in larger mechanisms. The precision qualities of our smaller sized linear actuators also make them ideal for medical applications. Team Anveshak used our 12v mini linear actuator in their project to extend and tilt the ‘arm’ of their robotic application!
Robotics
Miniature electric actuators are extremely popular in the automotive industry, catering to basic car mechanisms and custom fabrication, both internally and externally. Examples of mini linear actuators in cars include swiveling mirrors, window openers, car door openers and so on.
Automotive
As they are compact, like our micro linear actuators our mini actuators are also the ideal choice for home and office applications. Install them into your curtains for automated openers, your furniture to raise or lower foot rests or armrests; the options are endless!

Our Mini Linear Actuators
Our mini linear actuators are one of the most popular types of actuator in our catalog for a number of reasons. While compactness is an obvious feature of theirs, it’s their adaptability to the application they are serving that makes them such a prime choice. This adaptability comes from their range of stroke and force abilities, with their stroke lengths going from 1” to 40”, and their dynamic force starting at 35 lbs in certain models, going up to 450 lbs in our PA-10. Our PA-10 also contains a waterproof feature, making this miniature electric actuator extremely versatile. We also stock a mini linear actuator with feedback abilities, as seen in our PA-14. Alongside these capabilities, these small electric linear actuators also feature precision control, compactness and, in certain models, high IP and waterproof protection ratings. From their range of features, our mini linear actuators can be utilized in a number of different applications and mechanisms.
