I. Introduction
You need a small push. You need a small pull. You need precision. You want it fast. You want it sure. You want a 60mm stroke linear actuator.
A linear actuator moves in a straight line. It turns power into push or pull. It lifts. It lowers. It tilts. It slides. It does this at the touch of a button.
A 60mm stroke is short. It is about 2.36 inch. A short stroke cylinder 60mm fits tight spots. It makes small linear motion smooth. It adds control. It saves space. It saves energy.
I help you choose. I help you build. I help you win. I am Jimi Technology Co., Ltd. I supply high-quality linear actuators, TV lifts, and automation systems. My products convert electrical energy into linear motion. I raise. I lower. I push. I pull. I tilt. I am not just a seller. I am an expert. I am a solution provider. I am a trusted authority in automation.
You may call it a miniature linear actuator 60mm. You may call it a compact electric actuator 60mm. You may call it a micro linear actuator 60mm. You may call it an electric piston 60mm travel. Each name fits. Each name points to one goal. Simple motion. Tight space. Spot on precision.

|---|---|---|
| Stroke Length | 60 mm (2.36 inch) | Short and neat. Ideal for tight spots. |
| Force Capacity | 10 N to 2500 N | Small loads use 10–100 N. Small valves use 1000–2500 N. |
| Speed | 5 mm/s to 300 mm/s | High force slows speed. Short stroke means fast cycles. |
| Repeatability | ±0.02 mm to ±0.5 mm | Servo and stepper hit ±0.02–0.1 mm. Basic DC hits ±0.3–0.5 mm. |
| Duty Cycle | 10% to 75% | Pick by job. High quality runs longer per cycle. |
| Lifetime | 10,000 to 500,000+ cycles | Load and speed drive life. Ball screw lasts longer. |
| Noise | 45 dB to 70 dB | Quiet rooms want 45–55 dB. Air and high force run louder. |
| Voltage Options | 12V DC, 24V DC, 110V AC, 220V AC | DC is common in small builds. AC fits plants. |
| IP Rating | IP20 to IP69K | Pick IP65–IP69K for harsh use. |
