Are you unsure of the Actuator you need for your solution? With so many different actuators on offer, it can be hard to know which one is best for your solution.

Before commencing your search for the ideal actuator for your project, below are some of the things you need to consider.

  • Stroke Length = Do you require an open or closed position?
  • Force Required = How much force is required throughout the whole operation of mechanical movement to complete the motion – KG or x10 to get Nm?
  • Voltage = Will you require 12v or 24v?
  • Application = What is it being used for? For example, will it be affected by saltwater – sea spray etc?
  • Quantity = How many are required?
