Hi all,
i'm looking for some miniature linear actuator. As now i've found those
http://www.firgelli.com/products.htm

PQ-12F Seems good enough for what i'll need to do. Question is... do you know something like this but from other company and cheaper if possible?

The other i found are reaaaaallly too big. I'll need to move about 1-2 pound with it not much. This one have a built-in position pot, so noo need to add extra external stuff... i like that.

Let me know.

Cheers!

No, just absolute coincidence that when I was reading your post on-line, I was opening my outstanding (paper) post and there was some sales blurb from them...

Dear friends,

In fact I am working on a project for robot. I am asking whether you can provide me with new ideas that can be implemented as application for the robot. Please help me.

Looking to hear from you.

Best regards,
Bakari

Dear mister_e,

Thank you for your help. Up to now the robot is walking forward and backward as well as left and right. That is controlled remotely by either remote control or PC (LABVIEW) via wireless communication. That robot can speak as well. It is supported with obstacle finder. Also, in stand-alone mode it can detect any motion for humans and generate an alarm as sort of security.

What else I can add.

Yours,
Bakari
