Electric Linear Actuator DIY Project-Chicken Coop Automatic Door
Posted by CaryRS on
Keeping backyard chickens is a rewarding and increasingly popular hobby. However, one of the challenges of poultry farming is the daily task of opening and closing the chicken coop door. In this DIY project, we will use an electric linear actuator to build an automated door opener for your chicken coop. This opener is cleverly designed and easy to operate, making it an excellent companion for chicken coop managers. First, we need an electric linear actuator, a mounting bracket for the electric linear actuator, a metal door that fits the size of the chicken coop, and a controller (such as...
How do you control a linear actuator? Harnessing manual controllers to control linear actuators
Posted by CaryRS on
Introduction: Linear actuators play a crucial role in countless applications, enabling precise and controlled linear motion. Manual operation using hand controllers remains a valuable and versatile option. Manual controllers include control handle, toggle switch and rocker switch, etc. In this blog post, we will explore the process of manually operating linear actuators using hand controllers, highlighting their benefits, functionality, and practical applications. Benefits of Manual Operation: 1. Flexibility: Manual operation allows operators to have direct control over the linear actuators, enabling real-time adjustments and fine-tuning to meet specific requirements. This flexibility is particularly useful in situations where unexpected changes or...
