Technical Information & Formulas
Understanding the calculations behind actuator sizing
Force Calculation Formula
Required Force for Linear Motion:
F = (m × g + μ × m × g) × SF
Where:
• m = mass (kg)
• g = gravity (9.81 m/s²)
• μ = friction coefficient
• SF = safety factor
Power Calculation
Required Power:
P = F × v / η
Where:
• F = force (N)
• v = velocity (m/s)
• η = efficiency (≈0.8)
• P = power (W)
