What is a Linear actuator?

A linear actuator is a device that converts rotational motion into linear motion. It typically uses a motor as its driving source to convert electrical energy into mechanical linear motion, allowing for precise position control. Linear actuators are widely used in applications requiring fine, straight-line movements.

Working Principle:
A linear actuator consists of a motor and a lead screw (or ball screw) mechanism that converts rotational motion into linear motion. When the motor turns, it drives the screw, which in turn moves the linear sliding part back and forth, enabling precise linear motion.

Features:
・Precise positioning: Provides high accuracy and fine adjustments for precise movement.
・Low noise: Operates quietly, making it suitable for applications where noise reduction is important.
・Fast response: Capable of quick motion with minimal delay.
・Compact design: Can be used in tight spaces due to its small size.

Application of Linear actuator

１．Industrial equipment: Used for material handling, positioning, and automation in production lines.
２．Robotics: Applied in robotic arms for precise manipulation and movement.
３．Medical devices: Used in MRI machines, surgical robots, and other equipment requiring adjustable positioning.
４．Furniture and appliances: Employed in adjustable desks, recliners, and movable doors.
５．Automotive: Used for seat and pedal adjustments, and for opening trunks and windows.
