DC 6V 12V 24V optional 10mm stroke 188N 5mm/s mini linear actuator

(DC 6V / 12V / 24V):**
* This actuator is versatile and can be powered by various DC sources.
* 6V: Common for small battery-operated hobby projects or toys.
* 12V: The industry standard for automotive, marine, and general industrial automation.
* 24V: Often used in heavier industrial control systems or where voltage drop over long cable runs is a concern.

  • Stroke Length (10mm):
    • This is a very short travel distance (1 cm). It indicates the device is designed for micro-adjustments, locking mechanisms, or triggering switches rather than moving large objects over distances.
  • Force (188N):
    • 188 Newtons is approximately 19.17 kg or 42.2 lbs.
    • For a “mini” actuator, this is a relatively high force rating. It suggests high torque gearing inside the motor. It can push or pull a significant weight for its size.       
    • Speed (5mm/s):
      • This is a slow speed. It will take 2 seconds to fully extend or retract its 10mm stroke.
      • Trade-off: In linear actuators, speed and force are inversely related. The high force (188N) is achieved by gearing the motor down, which results in this slower speed (5mm/s).

Likely Applications

Given the combination of high force, short stroke, and compact size, this actuator is likely suitable for:

  1. Locking Mechanisms: Electronic door locks, cabinet latches, or safe boxes where a strong bolt needs to move a short distance to secure a door.
  2. Robotics: Gripper actuation (opening/closing a claw) or adjusting flaps/fins on drones or RC vehicles.
  3. Medical Devices: Precision dosing pumps or adjusting parts of a prosthetic limb.
  4. Automotive: Opening fuel tank flaps, trunk latches, or adjusting mirror angles.
  5. Smart Home: Automated window latches or vent openers.

Technical Considerations for Integration

If you are planning to use this component, consider the following:

  • Limit Switches: Does the unit have built-in limit switches? If not, you must design your circuit to cut power when the actuator reaches the end of its 10mm stroke to prevent motor burnout.
  • Duty Cycle: Mini actuators usually have a low duty cycle (e.g., 10-20%). They are not designed to run continuously; they need a “rest” period after moving to cool down.
  • Mounting: Check the datasheet for mounting holes (clevis or flat mount). With 188N of force, the mounting brackets need to be sturdy.
  • Current Draw: Ensure your power supply (battery or AC/DC adapter) can handle the peak current (stall current), which will be highest when the actuator is starting or pushing its maximum load.
