How to use the wireless controller to remotely control the linear actuator speed?

Posted by CaryRS on

This receiver is a wireless controller for DC motor or linear actuator, it and the transmitter form a wireless transmitter receiver system. It can be used for rolling blinds / doors, projection screens, awnings, winches, conveyors or other equipment with brushed DC motors or linear actuators. If you connect a brushed DC motor to this receiver, you can operate the motor to rotate in positive or reversal direction by the remote control. If you connect a DC linear actuator to this receiver, you can operate the linear actuator to extend or retract by the remote control. You can also adjust...

Pneumatic Actuators vs Electric Actuators: What is the difference between a pneumatic and electric linear actuator?Which is Better?

Posted by CaryRS on

In the production process of various industries, the actuator is an indispensable machine. Usually, it can be divided into two categories according to the application environment and application industry, that is, electric linear actuators and pneumatic linear actuators. The functions are almost the same, but there is a big difference in comparison from other aspects. What's an linear actuator?A "linear actuator" is an actuator that can either push with a thrust force or carry a load linearly to specific positions. While the structures are similar, the differences in actuators start with their source of power, which can be hydraulic (fluid),...

How to Achieve Synchronized Motion of Linear Actuators?

Posted by CaryRS on

If you want to use multiple linear actuators to raise and lower an equipment, for example two or four electric actuators. Since the high speed DC motors in electric actuators cannot run at exactly the same speed, so the movement speed of the electric actuator will also be different. When multiple electric actuators work at the same time, their actual speeds cannot be exactly the same. In this case, we can use a synchronous controller to operate multiple linear actuators to rise or fall synchronously. They work completely in sync without any difference. Application: Mainly used for doors, windows, cellars,...

How to choose the suitable linear actuator based on the weight of the trapdoor?

Posted by CaryRS on

To open trapdoors of different weights, it is necessary to select a linear actuator with suitable thrust, stroke and speed. The picture below is a trapdoor installed horizontally with a length and width of 80 cm. Its weight is 40kg. Choose the suitable stroke: We recommend that you install the bottom and head of the linear actuator at a distance of about 40cm vertically and horizontally from the fulcrum of the trapdoor. In this way, the initial installation distance between the head and the bottom of the linear actuator can be calculated to be 57CM. When the trapdoor is opened...

Use a slide controller with a slide potentiometer to control the stroke of the linear actuator.

Posted by CaryRS on

The linear actuator slide controller with slide potentiometer is used to control to control the travel of 12V electric linear actuators. It comes with travel control knob switch and learning button and external 10K sliding potentiometer. It is suitable for linear actuators type A2 with internal potentiometer. The operation of linear actuator with controller : Toggle the toggle switch to the right, which means the linear actuator is controlled by the knob switch. Toggle the toggle switch to the left, which means the linear actuator is controlled by the slide potentiometer. 1) The operation by the knob switch: Turn the...
