If you’re building a robotic arm, you’ll want something compact, accurate, and responsive — and Progressive Automations https://progressiveautomations.com.au/collections/linear-actuators has a few solid choices like 24v linear actuator. Their PA-12 micro linear actuators are great for robotics. They come in smaller sizes with different force and stroke options, which gives you a lot of flexibility when prototyping. I used them in a small robotic gripper build and they performed really well in terms of both speed and precision. You can pair them with their control boards or use your own microcontroller setup — everything is clearly documented. What I liked most is how smooth the motion was, even under load. If you’re doing a hobby project but still want reliable movement, they’re a great place to start.
