Linear Actuators: An Essential Tool for Precise Control

Posted by CaryRS on

Linear actuators are an integral part of the field of automation control, and they are widely used in various machines and equipment to achieve accurate position control and speed control. The principle of linear actuator A linear actuator is a mechanism that converts electrical signals into linear motion. Their working principle is based on the basic principle of electromagnetic field, which converts the rotational motion of the motor into linear motion through electromagnetic force or motor. Linear actuators can accurately control the speed, position and direction of motion, enabling high-precision position control and speed control. Classification of linear actuators Electric...
