I am reverse engineering a component and can not find a suitable replacement part. Th part is a 2.5 mm ID/4mm OD tube about 8mm long, bottomed out on one end and flanged on the other. It is used as a banana jack but not sure if that was it's orininal purpose. I have checked pamona, newark...
I desperately need a small actuator capable of lifting a small arm, (less then 8oz)about .25" in the air and lower it slowly. Something like the type of movement in a record player.
I've been looking at solenoids, steppers, linear steppers, pnematics, etc. I'm trying to avoid as much support...
