Actuators provide motion to any machine or system by converting energy into mechanical force. Taylor Devices can develop custom linear actuators that are activated by a machined spring, conventional coil spring, gas spring, liquid spring or externally applied system pressure.
If you are not sure which actuator will work best, our team of engineers are here to help. We will take all your requirements into consideration and design an actuator that meets your needs.
