Re: Expected Speed of a Linear actuator.

Thanks all.

At the moment, I'm veering toward the Just buy the simplest, cheapest one, less will go wrong. Please remember this is my first Robot..

Does anyone know any Actuator venders? It seems that if I had a list of websites that sell actuators, it will be easier to compare Speed, Lifting..um..capacity (?) and price.

I know I'm asking a lot, but...

Hi aero_storm,

The actuators here are not cheap but you can see the data sheets to compare Speed and Lifting capacity.
data sheets are .pdf files (adobe acrobat documents).
