How to Select the Right Linear Actuator
Choosing the right DC-powered linear actuator depends on the requirements of your application. Consider the following factors when evaluating your options.
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
Voltage & Speed
Match the actuator to your power supply and required operating speed.
- Voltage: Power required by the actuator
- Speed: How quickly the load must move
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
Operating Environment
Consider the conditions where the actuator will operate.
- Operating conditions
- Temperature requirements
- Environmental protection requirements
