Arduino is a good option when it comes to actuator control. With Arduino, you can apply linear actuators in multiple projects, even those that require top precision speed and movement accuracy.

But getting their accurate position is complicated. Linear Actuators are very costly (prices start from 10K) and can go up to several centimeters only also Position Controlled Linear Actuator is hard ...

Controlling Linear Actuator using Arduino. The parts required for the project setup are Arduino UNO, progressive automation PA-14-6-50, 12V 5A power supply, female power plug, small flat head ...

Arduino project to make a linear acutator bounce up and down. This project uses an Arduino, Fuyu FSL40 linear actuator, DM556 stepper motor driver, and SPDT switches and limit triggers. The code uses ...

Hardware abstraction layer to enable closed-loop position control of linear actuators with low-cost components. After installing the dependencies, this library should also be installed through the ...

Building an affordable lower power linear actuator using little Arduino hardware and programming. ... I’m using a motor with an encoder and an Arduino Uno to control position and velocity. ...

When power is removed linear actuator will hold its position. However, if a force large enough to overcome the internal friction is applied, the actuator will back drive. Here is an ultra-simple ...

The project brain is an off-the-shelf Arduino Uno paired with a MultiMoto Arduino shield to drive 4 Progressive Automations PA-14 linear actuators. These linear actuators have 50lb force, allowing ...

In this paper, position control of electrostatically controlled linear actuator (ECLIA) utilizing feedback control and a micro potentiometer using a PDP connection is investigated. ECLIA comprises a ...

Most electromagnetic actuators are rotating motors, or some variation on the theme, like servos. However, it’s possible to do linear actuation with electomagnetics, too. [Adrian Perez] demons… ...
