Linear actuators are presented now in the highest variety. There is no doubt that whatever project you are planning, you will find the needed actuators for it. To choose the right option, you need to ...

Among these applications is a linear actuator used in a throttle control system designed specifically for harsh environments. This particular linear actuator is used to control the power to a cement ...

The LS family of miniature linear actuators from Actuonix Motion Devices, Surrey, Canada, features built-in limit switching that turns them off when they reach maximum extension or load. The LS family ...

How linear, rotary, reciprocating and oscillating motion are evolving as customization grows and new capabilities emerge.

At 21 mm square (0.8-inch), the Size 8 hybrid external linear actuator is billed by the vendor as the world’s smallest linear actuator. The unit replaces four different components—a motor, couple, ...

A new linear/rotary dual-motion actuator has been designed to provide incremental rotational and linear movement of the output shaft. The Size 14 actuator has two degrees of freedom of movement that ...

Valve-controlled asymmetric cylinder is widely used in servo loading system. As a kind of typical electro-hydraulic servo system (EHSS), it inherently has the characteristics such as high order ...

Most electromagnetic actuators are rotating motors, or some variation on the theme, like servos. However, it’s possible to do linear actuation with electomagnetics, too. [Adrian Perez] demonstrates ...
