Linear Actuator Proyect

Hi:
I am doing a self-service kiosk project.

I purpose is to automatically dispense to the user, once finished a transaction, a 8 x 10 tri-fold brochure made on thick paper.

I have consulted with several printer and scanner manufacturers to see if it could turn one such a device into a document dispenser machine. I have no response, or there is no such device.

So, I saw your site and it seemed like a wonderful arena to create

I saw several components that may seem to work well together ideally for the project:

Please advise:

  1. I saw your Acutronics Linear actuator Board. This would be activated with a 5vdc pulse.

  2. The other component would be: L16 Linear Actuator 140 mm

Testing the Mockup, I can see that the trip of the actuator to open and close the drawer is about 5 inches.

Please also recommend if this model suits well and if with only (1) L16 is sufficient to hold.

Or it would take two of them for a secure/tight opening and closure.

Also if they are compatible with the Acuctronics Linear Board.

Looking forward for your response.

Thank you,

Let me see if I can attach a small video of the mock up unit I made out of cardboard.
