linear actuator

HIWIN Linear ActuatorsA Linear Actuator is a packaged unit that converts rotary motion into linear movement and consists basically of an electric motor, gearbox and lead or ballscrew. As the screw is rotated by the motor / gearbox, the nut extends and retracts the tube (or shaft) which is attached to the load. The speed of movement (mm) of this shaft and the acceptable load (N) to be pulled or pushed is shown for each type of actuator on the Speed/Load graphs. The actuator can be stopped at any time during its movement; however, consideration must be given to the rated maximum holding force
