How to Select the Right Linear Actuator

Choosing the right AC-powered linear actuator depends on the requirements of your application. Consider the following factors when evaluating your options.

1

Capacity & Travel

Determine how much force and movement your application requires.

  • Capacity: force required to move and hold the load
  • Travel: required distance or range of motion
2

Voltage & Speed

Match the actuator to your power supply and required operating speed.

  • Voltage
  • Required movement speed
3

Duty Cycle & Orientation

Consider how the actuator will operate within your system.

  • Duty cycle: percentage of time the actuator is in motion
  • Orientation: direction in which the actuator’s force is applied
4

Operating Environment

  • Operating conditions
  • Outdoor-use requirements
  • Food-grade material requirements
