If I have a linear actuator, how can I find out how much force it can move with a constant velocity?

berkeman said:Look at the datasheet for the static force. Why are you thinking there will be a constant velocity? Is it pushing against a friction force? If it is just pushing against a mass or moment of inertia, there will be an acceleration...
An actuator generates dynamic loading by converting energy from a power source into mechanical motion. This mechanical motion creates forces that can be measured as dynamic loading.
The purpose of measuring dynamic loading of an actuator is to understand how the actuator performs under different conditions and to ensure that it is functioning properly. This information can also be used to improve the design and efficiency of the actuator.
Dynamic loading of an actuator is typically measured in units of force, such as newtons or pounds. It can also be measured in units of torque, which is a measure of rotational force.
The dynamic loading of an actuator can be affected by various factors, such as the type and quality of the materials used, the design and construction of the actuator, the amount of power supplied to the actuator, and external forces acting on the actuator.
Dynamic loading of an actuator is typically measured using a load cell, which is a device that can accurately measure forces. The actuator is connected to the load cell, and as the actuator moves, the load cell measures the forces generated. This data can then be recorded and analyzed to determine the dynamic loading of the actuator.
