APO RESEARCH · REPORT
Non-captive Linear Actuators
A non-captive linear actuator translates a threaded shaft through its driven internal nut, with external arrangements controlling shaft rotation and mounting.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
The external anti-rotation arrangement is part of the motion system; without suitable restraint, commanded rotation may not produce the intended translation.
What turns activity into demand
A motion requirement translates into stroke, load direction, speed, duty cycle and safe load retention. Guides, mountings and controls remain part of the complete mechanism.
The commercial boundary
An actuator rating applies under specified alignment and duty. A motor voltage or nominal thrust alone cannot define holding, precision or fault behaviour.
How are screw rotation and translation constrained?
The external anti-rotation arrangement is part of the motion system; without suitable restraint, commanded rotation may not produce the intended translation.
