>Want to buy an linear actuator for diy project with seemingly high criteria>find Moteck MD21 which sounds perfect for my project and it's only around 200 dollars for everything>but it does have 10% duty cycle so it doesn't fit>try to find something with high duty cycle>pretty much only industrial actuators met this cryteria>Find festo 5428891 which doesn't have as good parameters while it's much bigger>it's 500 dollars for the actuator and 2500 dollars for the motor because they are separateWhat the fuck, there really aren't any cheap actuators from china that can work all the time? Or at least 50% of the time? I only need one and it doesn't need to be anything amazing. What will happen If I will use 100% time an actuator that designed for 10% duty, the motor will simply overheat and burn?
>>3006504What are you doing with a linear actuator that needs to run full duty? Sounds like a better application for pneumatics or hydraulics.
>>3006504how much the dildo weigh?
Put cooling on the 10% autofucker.
>>3006553isn't the engine a moving part? I'm asking because I genuinely wonder how can I cool a moving part. It's not like I can but a radiator and glue it on one part of the engine. Also, from what I looked there are gears. Would those break?>>3006548I'm looking for something that will hold up to 150kg of weight. A bit too much for a dildo.>>3006542I just wanted a piece of desk that will move up and down whenever the level of the floor changes and it is supposed to change more than 10% of the time. The desk isn't going to move by much, at worst 100-200 mm.Idk about pneumatics or hydraulics, never researched them. I want something that silent and compact which from what I have googled pneumatics aren't, though I will look at hydraulics.
>>3006585>genuinely wonder how can I cool a moving partHow indeed>buy a radiator and glue it on one part of the engineYes that's exactly how you cool things. Cooling one thing also has tendency to cool adjacent things.
>>3006587yeah but If it's moving then radiator will also move, the faster the motor moves, the higher chance the radiator will fall off. To make radiator work, I would have to glue it with something conductive which I never heard of existing.
>>3006585>I just wanted a piece of desk that will move up and down whenever the level of the floor changes Are we dodging around maritime? If you want to level your table you need three/four motors instead of one, which might play into your favour as less strength per actuator is needed.
>>3006625yeah I know, but for now I want to simply build a prototype and at least 50% duty time is a crucial requirement that I will need to met.
>>3006504>What will happen If I will use 100% time an actuator that designed for 10% duty, the motor will simply overheat and burn?Usually the thermal cutout trips, and you have to wait a while for it to reset.
>>3006504gates opening kit sounds like a cheaper solution, it might be just too slow. You need to find the brushless one.
