Pololu Glideforce GF23-120504-3-65 High-Speed LD Linear Actuator with Feedback: 12kgf, 4" Stroke (3.9" Usable), 3.3"/s, 12V

This 12V high-speed light-duty linear actuator features a 5:1 gear reduction, capable of lifting loads up to 12 kg (120 N) and enduring static loads up to 30 kg (300 N). It achieves a maximum speed of 84 mm/s at no load and 75 mm/s at maximum load. Equipped with limit switches at both ends, it ensures precise control throughout its range of motion, while the shaft maintains its position when unpowered. This model offers a 10 cm stroke (9.9 cm usable) and includes a feedback potentiometer for precise positioning.

Ideal for applications requiring precise control and positioning, this actuator is perfect for robotics, home automation, and industrial machinery. Its feedback potentiometer provides real-time position data, allowing for enhanced control in automated systems.

One of the standout features of this actuator is its ability to hold its position without power, making it energy-efficient and reliable in maintaining positions under varying loads. The integrated limit switches simplify the control process, ensuring smooth and safe operation.

With its robust design and high-speed capabilities, this actuator is a valuable component for projects demanding both power and precision. Its compact size and efficient performance make it suitable for a wide range of applications, from DIY projects to complex industrial systems.
