Abstract: This letter introduces a novel linear actuator with a high extension ratio, achieved through a unique planar transforming linkage mechanism (TLM) that serves as an articulated lead screw.

This library should support any Arduino-compatible board, including the Pololu A-Star controllers. The HighPowerStepperDriver library supports Pololu's High-Power Stepper Motor Driver 36v4. Before ...

"Strong linear actuators are created using car jacks and windshield wiper motors. By repurposing these everyday items, a powerful actuator is built, ideal for various DIY projects.

There are also a few similar designs on Thingiverse if you want to try a different set of parts, although many of those use stepper motors. We’ve seen some homebrew linear actuators before ...
