Classification of Linear Actuator

The Linear Actuator is a kind of electric drive device that converts the rotating motion of the motor into the linear reciprocating motion of the Linear Actuator. It can be used as an execution machine in a variety of simple or complex process flows to achieve remote control, centralized control or automatic control. It is widely used in the motion drive unit of household appliances, kitchenware, medical equipment, automobile and other industries. Below we will classify linear actuators according to their characteristics, design and power source.

1. Classification according to appearance: Linear Actuator, L-type electric linear actuator, pillow linear actuator, bread linear actuator, etc.;

2. According to screw classification: trapezoidal screw, ball screw, planet ball screw and other linear actuator;

3. According to motor classification: DC motor, AC motor, stepper motor, servo motor and other linear actuator;

4. Classification according to characteristics: waterproof linear actuator, silent linear actuator, dt heavy linear actuator, micro linear actuator;

5. Classification by use: rehabilitation medical, industrial automation, smart skylight, automobile and Marine industries;
