Linear track servo
T16-R Linear Track Servos
The T16-R series is the servo variant of our popular T16 track actuator line. The T16-R is a great solution for applications that require high speed or force as well as a support for the load. They're constructed from high quality materials including anodized aluminum, all-metal planetary gearbox and stainless steel screw and bearings.
To use the T16-R, you must simply plug in the included Ext-R board, and you're ready to go. Please be aware that the power supply must match the rated input of the device, which is 12V. If you're using the servo in an RC application, you may need to use a separate power supply to meet the 12V requirement. The T16-R mini linear servo is ideal for projects where higher force or speed is required, and RC or Arduino control is being utilized. Using our Ext-R board saves you designing a custom controller or a custom actuator.
T16-R Series Track Servos
Our T16-R series linear actuators come in a variety of configurations including:
- 3 Stroke options: 100mm, 200mm and 300mm
- 3 gearing options for maximum speeds between 46mm/s and 4.8mm/s and maximum forces between 50N (11.2lbs) and 300N (67lbs)
- 12V input
Upgrade your Project with Powerful, Affordable Linear Track Servos
The T16-R is the most powerful linear servo we offer. Using these devices with RC or Arduino is a breeze with our included standard 3-wire servo cable. Please be aware that a separate power source may be required as the input voltage must match the rated voltage of the servo.

Frequently Asked Questions About T16-R Mini Track Servos
We've compiled a list of frequently asked questions to help you better understand T16-R and how they can benefit your projects.
Are T16-R servos plug and play with RC receivers?
Most RC receivers operate between 5-9V. As all T16-R models require a 12V input, we recommend using a dedicated 12V power source.
Are T16-R servos plug and play with Arduino?
Arduino boards are not designed to power such a large device. As with RC applications, we recommend using a dedicated 12V power source..
What comes in the box?
You will receive a T16-P linear actuator with a mounting hardware kit, as well as an External-R board. This combination together functions as an R-Series linear servo. The External-R board is required for the T16 to function as a servo.
Can I just run the servo at 6V?
The servo will likely move at 6V, but will not meet datasheet performance numbers. This may also affect product warranty.
