Description
The LKT 12V Linear Actuator is a high-performance electric actuator engineered to convert rotational motion from a low-voltage DC motor into smooth linear motion (push and pull). Constructed from durable aluminum alloy, it provides quiet, precise, and reliable operation for a wide range of industrial, medical, and home automation applications. This model features a 500mm stroke and includes a set of mounting brackets for simple and secure installation.
Working Principle
The actuator operates using a DC motor, gear, and spindle assembly with nut, converting rotational motion into linear movement. It comes with built-in limit switches to automatically stop the push rod at fully extended or retracted positions. The self-locking function ensures the rod remains in position without power.
