Our Smallest Micro Actuator Yet: The P8 Series

As products get smaller and smaller the demand for compact actuators has increased. At Actuonix, we're constantly challenging ourselves to build more compact actuators to meet the evolving needs of our clients. Introducing the P8 series. The P8 is a completely new design from the ground up. With a body that's thinner than our PQ12 actuator, and a variety of stroke lengths, gear ratios and motor types to choose from, the P8 is sure to offer an out of the box solution that works for you.

No matter your application needs, P8 series micro linear actuators from Actuonix will deliver exceptional, compact performance. Their design offers strength and efficiency for engineers and designers looking for precise motion control in space-constrained environments. Browse our entire selection of products by type, or use the actuator selector tool today.

Explore Our P8 Configurations


Our P8 line of actuators is available in a variety of configurations to suit the requirements of your design.

Customers can select from four distinct stroke lengths: 10mm, 25mm , 50mm, 75mm and 100mm. This variety ensures that our off the shelf P8 linear actuators can meet the requirements of most projects. In addition to stroke length, P8 actuators are available in three force and speed combinations, featuring 49:1(ST), 50:1, 165:1 or 252:1 gearing. This flexibility allows for accurate control over the motion and force, making sure that the P8 series micro linear actuators are easy to integrate into a variety of products and applications.

p8 linear actuator

P8 series actuators are available with four different control options:

1. P8-ST Series

The P8-ST actuator is our smallest stepper model yet. Precise, compact and available in many different configurations, the P8-ST is the perfect choice for applications with that require high precision or extended lifespan in a tight space.

2. P8-S Series

Each model in our S-Series P8 linear actuators is equipped with end-limit switches. These switches automatically shut off the unit if it reaches its maximum extension or retraction. Operating these units is straightforward: simply switch the polarity on the actuator's two leads. They are compatible with various control methods, including a DPDT switch, relay or brushed DC motor controller.

3. P8-P Series

P-Series P8 linear actuators are designed without an integrated controller. However, they provide an analog position feedback signal with an external controller. These actuators are ideally paired with our Linear Actuator Control Board (LAC), enabling control through various methods, including USB (using our Configuration Utility Software), 0-5V, 4-20mA, RC Servo or PWM. The LAC also provides on-board options for adjusting speed, sensitivity, stroke limits and stall protection features.

4. P8-R Series

The P8 actuator as also available as an R series. R functionality can be achieved by pairing a P8-P actuator with our External R board. The board effectively makes the actuator an R model.

Frequently Asked Questions: P8 Series Micro Linear Actuators

If you have questions or would like to learn more about P8 series micro linear actuators, check out the answers to our most frequently asked questions below.

What is the difference between the P8 and the PQ12?

The P8 is available with five different stroke options, whereas the PQ12 only has a 20mm stroke. Additionally, the PQ12 is thicker than the P8, and is not available with a stepper motor.

How do I select the right P8 model for my project?

Selecting the right P8 linear actuator involves considering your application's stroke length, force, voltage, and control requirements. We have developed a tool to help you with this. Our actuator selector tool will narrow down your options based on your criteria.

How long will my P8 actuator last?

The lifespan of your actuator will depend on a variety of factors including load, input voltage, side-load, duty cycle and more. We encourage our customers to do their own testing to evaluate the lifespan of their particular application.
