APO RESEARCH · REPORT
Captive Linear Actuators
A captive linear actuator contains an integrated anti-rotation guide that translates its output rod without requiring external screw restraint.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Integrated guidance changes packaging and side-load capacity; it does not remove backlash, load limits or the need to verify actual position.
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?
Integrated guidance changes packaging and side-load capacity; it does not remove backlash, load limits or the need to verify actual position.
