Hi everyone,

I have a question about a specific firgelli linear actuator.
firgelliauto.com/product_info.php?cPath=110&products_id=133
I need to have an actuator that has position control and be reletively small. The other mini actuators I found were not strong enough. This actuator is perfect except it does not seem to have the feedback control I need.

My question is, is there a way to easily modify these actuators so that I can use it as if it had feedback?

Thanks in advanced.

Unfortunately not. You can always try to find a linear potentiometer long enough and add it externally. The 35lb linear actuators are larger, but have feedback. The L12 actuators sound like they are not powerful enough.
