Frequently Asked Questions

1.How Does a Linear Actuator Work?

A linear actuator works by converting energy into straight-line motion. In electric actuators, a motor rotates a lead screw or ball screw, which moves a connected rod or shaft back and forth along a linear path.

The rotation of the motor is transformed into linear displacement as the screw threads push or pull the shaft. This motion can be precisely controlled using electrical signals, allowing for adjustments in position, speed, and force. Linear actuators are widely used in applications like automation, robotics, medical devices, and automotive systems for precise, reliable movement.

2. What is a Linear Actuator?

A linear actuator is a device that converts energy—typically electrical, hydraulic, or pneumatic—into linear (straight-line) motion. It is designed to move loads, adjust positions, or generate force along a single axis. The most common type of linear actuator uses an electric motor, which drives a lead screw or ball screw to convert rotary motion into linear motion.

The actuator's rod or shaft moves back and forth, allowing precise control of positioning, speed, and force. Linear actuators are essential components in automation systems, robotics, medical equipment, automotive applications, and more, offering reliable, controlled movement in various industries.

3.What is an actuator？

Actuators are used in various systems to perform tasks such as controlling valves, moving robotic arms, adjusting positions in automation, and operating machinery. They are essential in industries like manufacturing, robotics, aerospace, and automotive, providing precise control and actuation for a wide range of applications. Common types of actuators include electric, pneumatic, hydraulic, and thermal actuators.
