Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is a device that converts energy into linear motion. It is used to move or control a mechanism or system, and is often used in robotics, manufacturing, and other industrial applications. Linear actuators are powered by either electric motors, pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders, or a combination of both. The most common type of linear actuator is the electric motor, which is used to move objects in a straight line. Electric motors are used in a variety of applications, including automated assembly lines, robotic arms, and automated doors. Pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders are also used in linear actuators, but they are typically used in more complex applications such as controlling the movement of a robotic arm or a machine tool. Linear actuators can be used to move objects in a straight line, rotate objects, or even to lift and lower objects. Linear actuators are also used in a variety of other applications, such as controlling the movement of valves, pumps, and other machinery.
