Feedback Actuators
For linear actuators with position feedback, Actuonix has you covered. Our P-series feedback actuators have internal potentiometers that allow you to read the actuator's position. Simply provide a DC voltage and the feedback signal will vary linearly with the actuator's position. Although there is no built-in controller on the P-series linear actuators, closed loop control can be achieved with an external controller reading the position. Our LAC Board was designed specifically to work with our P-series feedback actuators. Browse our extensive selection of actuators with feedback below!
-
L12-P
Our standard line of feedback actuators. They are available in 4 stroke lengths: 10mm (0.4"), 30mm (1.2"), 50mm (2") and 100mm (3.9") and 3 gearing options for forces between 2-10lbs. -
L16-P
The big brother to the L12 series, the L16s larger motor is capable of greater loads and faster speeds than the L12-P series, The L16-P is available in 3 stroke lengths: 50mm (2"), 100mm (3.9") and 140mm (5.5") and 3 gearing options for forces between 10-40lbs. -
P16-P
Our most powerful line of feedback actuators. The P16-P features a planetary drive for greater forces and higher duty cycle applications. They are available in 4 stroke lengths: 50mm (2"), 100mm (3.9"), 150mm (5.9") and 200mm (7.9") and 3 gearing options for forces between 10lbs and 60lbs.
-
P8-P
Designed to be as compact as the PQ12, but available in 5 different stroke lengths, and 3 gear ratios. -
PQ12-P
Our smallest feedback actuator, the PQ12-P is truly a micro wonder. With its 20mm (0.8") stroke and 3 gearing options it can provide forces between 2-10lbs and is small enough to fit in a tic tac box. -
T16-P
Our new line of track actuators based on the popular P16 series. The track design makes the T16 significantly shorter than the same stroke length P16, since instead of an extending shaft, a sliding mount is provided. The sliding mount also significantly increases the maximum side load specification. The T16-P feedback track actuator is available in 3 stroke lengths: 100mm (3.9"), 200mm, 7.9") and 300mm (11.8").
The Best Selection of Linear Actuators With Position Feedback
Actuonix P-series feedback actuators feature an internal potentiometer for position feedback. They are ideally suited to automatically controlled positioning systems, but they can also be driven manually. The P-series actuators have no built-in controller — they send an analog position feedback signal that can be input to an external controller. We devised our Linear Actuator Control (LAC) Board to work with the feedback actuators in the P series.
The P-series lineup can be used as a linear servo by connecting the actuator to an external controller such as the LAC board. This control board reads the position signal from the P-series feedback actuators, compares it with your input control signal, then commands the actuator to move via an onboard H-bridge circuit. The LAC allows any one of the following control inputs: 0-3.3VDC, 4-20mA, 0-5V PWM, 1-2ms standard RC servo or USB. The RC input effectively transforms your actuator into a linear servo, which is a direct replacement for any common hobby servo used in RC toys and robotics.
