Linear actuator required
Looking for a linear actuator to travel 16", only needs to push about 20lbs or so. 12v is good. Anyone know where I can find such a thing for a good deal?
Thanks!
Thanks!
If you are looking for an electromechanical tube style try http://www.ultamotion.com or http://www.motionsystem.com. If you are looking for a medium accuracy table style I can help jason.ross@us.schneider.com (http://www.bergerlahrmotion.com). A good lower accuracy table can be got at http://www.velmex.com and of course http://www.ebay.com
