Good day to you all, i am new in arduino and electrical. I am trying to run the linear actuator model Sumret SRA6000 with motor driver L298N. Will it works? If not work, what motor driver can i use for synchronize both linear actuator and is there any source for reference?
Thank you.
Specification SRA6000
stroke:250mm
Load capacity:6000N
No-Load capacity:5mm/s
Input voltage: dc12V
Below is the code that i use in Arduino.ide

Mod: added Code quotes.

C-like:
#include <ActuatorsAndSensors.h>

#include <ActuatorsAndSensors.h>

#define IN1 2

#define IN2 3

#define ENA 4

//Instantiate the Linear Actuator

LinearActuator LinAct(IN1, IN2, ENA);

void setup() {



  //Allows the actuator to recieve power

  LinAct.turnOn();

}

void loop() {

  int pwm = 255;

  //Sends the actuator up at specified pwm (default value of 255 if not passed)

  LinAct.goUp(pwm);

  delay(5000);

  //Stops linear actuator motion until a goUp() or goDown() but doesn't turn it off

  LinAct.pause();

  delay(5000);

  //Sends the actuator down at specified pwm (default value of 255 if not passed)

  LinAct.goDown(pwm);

  delay(5000);

  //Turns the linear actuator off, goUp() and goDown() will not work until turnOn() is called

  LinAct.turnOff();

}

From what I see, looking at the Aliexpress website, it uses a 60W motor, so no, you can't use the L298N driver. You need one that can supply at least 5 Amps minimum.

Ok thanks, so can I use BTS7960 motor driver for this?
