Miniature Linear Motion Series · L12

Actuonix Motion Devices unique line of Miniature Linear Actuators enables a new

generation of motion-enabled product designs, with capabilities that have never before

been combined in a device of this size. These small linear actuators are a superior

alternative to designing with awkward gears, motors, servos, and linkages.

Actuonix’s L series of micro linear actuators combine the best features of our existing

micro actuator families into a highly flexible, configurable, and compact platform with an

optional sophisticated on-board microcontroller. The first member of the L series, the

L12, is an axial design with a powerful drive-train and a rectangular cross section for

increased rigidity. But by far the most attractive feature of this actuator is the broad

spectrum of available configurations.
