Unfortunately, long-throw linear actuators are a little harder to come by, so it’s nice to know you can 3D-print linear gearing for standard micro RC servos and roll your own. Currently on ...

Six actuators in total form a Gough-Stewart Platform for moving the toolhead. Interestingly, this 6-Axis Micro Manipulator is a sort of side project. [David] is interested in creating his own ...

Thermal microactuators are small devices that convert thermal energy into mechanical motion, often used in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS). These actuators are particularly valuable in ...
