Array Of Independent Linear Actuators
Array Of Independent Linear Actuators
(OP)
Hello,
I'm trying to build a refreshable Braille display and I'm looking for an array of mini linear actuators that I can be controlled independently. Any ideas where I can find something like this?
Thank you.

Could be sprung down by default with the solenoid acting to pull it up when needed.
Not sure about a completely off the shelf solution but maybe you'll be lucky.

@GregLocock I actually just got one and I'm going to try it. I'm just worried that it's going to be too loud, so I'm looking for alternatives.

Could ad a secondary locking mechanism but you raise a good point, may not be as simple as I made it sound.
