FAQs
What is a linear actuator and how does it work?
A linear actuator is a mechanical device that converts rotary motion from a motor into straight-line movement. This allows components or loads to be pushed, pulled, lifted or positioned with control and repeatability.
In electric linear actuators, this motion is typically generated using a toothed belt or screw mechanism guided along a rigid rail. The result is precise, consistent movement that can be easily integrated into automated systems.
What types of linear actuators exist and which should I choose?
Linear actuators are commonly categorised as electric, pneumatic or hydraulic.
Electric actuators are widely used in automation and machine construction due to their positioning accuracy, clean operation and ease of control. Pneumatic and hydraulic options are more suitable where very high forces are required but offer less precision.
The best choice depends on whether fidelity or load capacity is more important.
What should I consider when selecting a linear actuator?
Key factors include stroke length, required force, positioning accuracy and speed. These parameters determine how far the actuator can travel, how much load it can move and how precisely and quickly it can place that load within your system.
Environmental conditions such as dust, moisture or temperature can also influence material and protection requirements.
What are typical applications of linear actuators and are they suitable for gantry or automation systems?
Linear actuators are commonly used in material handling, pick-and-place systems, packaging equipment, inspection stations and CNC-style positioning tasks. They are well-suited to gantry and automation systems where controlled, repeatable motion across one or multiple axes is required.
