Are you curious how machines move up, down, left, or right with just a push of a button? That's the magic of slide actuators. At Jimi Technology Co., Ltd., we make slide actuators that help things move straight, smooth, and fast—like robots on an assembly line, pick and place units, or doors that open without a hand.
What Are Slide Actuators?
UN slide actuator is a strong helper that moves things from here to there in a straight line. It can raise, lower, push, pull, or tilt objects. It uses power, like electricity, air, or oil, to make things go where you want—nice and easy!
At Jimi, we turn énergie électrique into real, linear motion. With our solutions d'automatisation, you can control machines with a button. No sweat, no fuss!
Why Do You Need Slide Actuators?
- They make work safer. No more heavy lifting by hand!
- They save time. Fast moves mean quicker jobs.
- They help machines do the same thing again and again—perfect for making toys, food, or cars.
- They make things précis. Need tiny, exact moves? Slide actuators are your answer.
Imagine: You watch a robot arm pick up a box, move it, and put it down. All those movements come from smart motion control components like our slide actuators.
Types of Slide Actuators and How They Work
Let's look at the three main kinds:
- Pneumatic Slide Actuators
- How they work: Ils utilisent air comprimé to push and pull things.
Key Features:
- Rapide
- Simple
- Good for light jobs
Pour : Cheap, quick, easy to fix
Cons : Not good for very heavy things, needs air supply
LSI Keywords: Pneumatic slide cylinders, air cylinder guided slides, rodless actuators
- Electric Slide Actuators
- How they work: Electric motors turn gears, screws, or belts to move the slide.
Key Features:
- Very précis
- ENERGY SAVER!
- Programmable
Pour : Uses less energy, very accurate
Cons : Can cost more up front
Common types: Servo electric actuators, stepper motor linear actuators, belt driven linear actuators, integrated motor linear slides
- Hydraulic Slide Actuators
- How they work: Pressurized liquid moves the slide.
Key Features:
- Can handle HUGE loads
- Très solide
- Never gets tired
Pour : Lifts very heavy things
Cons : Needs oil, more care
LSI Keywords: Hydraulic slide units, hydraulic power units

How To Pick The Right Slide Actuator
Choosing the best actuator is easy when you know what to look for.
Ask yourself:
- How much force do I need? (Thrust force, axial and radial load capacity)
- How far does it need to move? (Stroke length)
- How fast? (Speed and acceleration)
- How precise? (Positional accuracy, repeatability)
- How long does it need to last? (Duty cycle, maintenance needs)
- Where will it work? (Dust, cleanroom, IP rating, hot, cold)
- What controller do I use? (PLC or computer, connectivity needs)
- What’s the cost? (Not just the price, but how much you save on energy and fixing over time)
Helpful Table: Key Selection Criteria
| Criteria | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Force/Load | Needed for moving object |
| Longueur de la course | How far it needs to travel |
| Vitesse | How quickly the move is done |
| Précision | How close to exact spot you need |
| Duty Cycle/Lifetime | How often it runs |
| Environnement | Hot, cold, dusty, cleanroom |
| Control & Integration | Type of controller, connectivity |
| Coût | Upfront & operating costs |
