Linear actuator uses a lead screw driven by a permanent magnet dc motor to create linear motion from a dc voltage. When power is removed linear actuator will hold its position. However, if a force ...

For specific applications, you might need a variable speed linear actuator. Thus, let us check for what projects you might need to control the actuator speed and how you can do it.

Electric actuators are easy to install and set up. Moreover, one can control the movement with superior precision. As a result, linear actuators can perform countless tasks in different settings. More ...

A small stack to control the 6 linear actuators of a Stewart platform. Originally written for a Seeeduino XIAO microcontroller. 3 XIAO's were used, one controlling legs 1 and 6 (L1, L6), a second ...

Known as a stepper motor linear actuator (SMLA), this configuration can provide precise control, reliability and versatility along a linear path, but if there is potential for even a small moment ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design ...

The bungee cords are important; without them, the timing belts would be carrying all the load of the sim – not a good thing if these actuators are moving an entire cockpit around a living room.
