The Light-Duty (LD) series of Glideforce linear actuators from Concentric International (formerly Iowa Export-Import) are 12V DC geared motors that use a lead screw to move a shaft back and forth over its length. The shaft retains its position even when de-energized and is exposed to static loads of up to 250 kg. Two limit switches safely stop the motor at both ends of its range, while integrated diodes allow it to reverse direction when a limit is reached when the supplied voltage is reversed. The actuators have a full aluminum frame and extension tube, and the entire housing is dustproof and waterproof (IP65).
