Series Classification: Micro Pen Series (Standard) | Application: Robotics, Medical Devices, & Consumer Electronics
The Micro Pen Actuator is engineered for applications where high-grade performance is required within an extremely limited footprint. Measuring just 16mm (0.62") in diameter, this actuator offers a compact solution for concealing motion control inside consumer electronics, robotic grippers, or hidden panel mechanisms.
Compact & Robust: Despite its slender profile, the Micro Pen Series is built for durability. It features a robust Overload Protection System that automatically disengages the motor in the event of a structural jam or obstruction, preventing burnout and mechanical failure. This makes it an incredibly reliable choice for delicate yet critical applications.
Designed for ease of use, this actuator operates on a standard 2-Wire 12V DC interface. Extending or retracting the shaft is as simple as reversing the polarity of the power source. This universal control scheme makes it instantly compatible with basic rocker switches, wireless remote systems, and standard H-Bridge motor controllers.
The Micro Pen Series is constructed using high-grade Aluminum T6063 components and Stainless Steel 304 rods. Assembled to exacting specifications, these actuators offer smooth, consistent performance with forces ranging from 4.5lbs up to 22lbs, making them a dependable solution for demanding production requirements.
