L 12-R Series Linear Servo
Our L12 series actuator is an axial design that utilizes a powerful PMDC motor and a rectangular cross section for increased strength. But by far the most attractive feature of this actuator is the broad spectrum of configurations available. This is a standard hobby-type remote-control digital servo interface (CMOS logic), compatible with most RC receivers. They are a 6v unit. Available in 30mm, 50mm and 100mm strokes. Price: $70.00
PQ12-R Linear Servo
The PQ12-R series of linear servos operate as a direct replacement for standard rotary servos. They use the same standard 3 wire connector, ground power and control. Regardless of how you drive your servos, be it with an RC receiver, an Arduino board, or a VEX micro-controller, the PQ12-R servo will function in place of a regular servo, but with the added benefit of providing linear motion. The PQ12-R is available in a 20mm stroke coupled with gear ratio options of 30:1, 63:1 and 100:1 to cover a large variety of applications. Price: $65.00
P16-P Actuator
The “P” series actuators offer no built-in controller, but do provide an analog position feedback signal that can be input to an external controller. The “P” series can be used with our Linear Actuator Control Board (LAC) to give the “P” series the ability to be controlled with USB (via our Configuration Utility Software), 0-5v, 4-20mA, RC Servo or PWM. On board adjustment of speed, sensitivity and stroke limits are available via the LAC. The “P” series are available in 12v only. P16-S: With limit switches: These units are operated by reversing polarity on the actuator’s two leads. Price: $90.00
Linear Actuator Control Board
The Linear Actuator Control Board is a stand-alone closed-loop control board specifically designed for Actuonix “P” series actuators. The LAC greatly simplifies designs by saving the development time, cost, and processor overhead associated with direct motor control. As little as 1 digital or analog output is required for position control. Supported input signals include USB, Voltage, Current, RC Servo, and PWM. On board adjustment of speed, sensitivity, and stroke limits are available. The LAC can be operated as both an interface board, or as a stand alone controller with the addition of an external potentiometer and power supply. Each LAC Board controls 1 linear actuator and will require an external power supply rated for the actuator. The LAC will work with the PQ12-P, L12-P, L16-P and P16-P series actuators. Price: $40.00
