Linear Actuator Controller for Any Application

A Linear Actuator Controller is a versatile device that unlocks the potential of linear actuators in various applications. It acts as the brain of your linear actuator setup, providing precise control over its movement. Whether you're automating a solar tracking system, adjusting an ergonomic workstation, or controlling a robotic arm, a linear actuator controller empowers you to achieve complex motions. With features like synchronized actuator operation and customizable start and stop positions, you can design your application with unmatched precision and flexibility.

For instance, if you are building a furniture piece that adjusts its height, a linear actuator controller would ensure the legs move together smoothly and precisely. Customizable start and stop strokes would allow you to program the exact height range of the furniture.

In essence, a linear actuator controller is not essential for operating a linear actuator, but it offers a significant improvement in terms of control, precision, and versatility.

Beyond the Basics: Unlocking the True Potential of Your Linear Actuators

Standard linear actuators offer functionality, but the Firgelli Automation Control Board elevates them to highly precise and versatile tools.

Synchronous mode ensures all connected actuators move in perfect unison, regardless of slight variations in speed or load between them. This eliminates alignment issues and maximizes efficiency in applications demanding synchronized movement, perfect for solar tracking systems, adjustable furniture where multiple legs need to move together, or even robotic arms requiring coordinated motion.

Further precision is achieved with independent speed control. Imagine an ergonomic workstation where the keyboard tray adjusts at a slower, controlled pace for user comfort, while the monitor mount raises quickly for efficient positioning. This feature allows you to independently adjust the extension and retraction speeds of each actuator, tailoring movements to specific needs. Need a delicate adjustment for a robotic gripper? Slow down the extension speed for ultimate control.

Ever feel limited by the built-in stopping points of linear actuators? The Firgelli control board breaks those limitations with limit position adjustment. Limit position adjustment empowers you to set customized starting and stopping positions for each actuator, overriding built-in limits. This opens doors for unique applications. Imagine an automatic chicken coop door that opens to a specific height at sunrise and closes to a lower level at dusk, accommodating different predator threats throughout the day.
