I'm looking for a small 12V powered device that will generate up to 80psi of hydraulic pressure. It will replace (or connect to) the foot operated hydraulic master cylinder in a typical standard transmission vehicle. Here is a picture of the device I am looking for, https://www.epartrade.com/product/70fd6e1b-eclutch-actuator-oem
but I cannot find anywhere to purchase something like this. I see that the electro-mechanical portion of this is rather small but I don't know what is in there.
It has to be controllable so you can engage the clutch slowly from a standing start yet it has to move rapidly too in the case of shifting gears. Would this be an electric jack screw operating a piston or a rotating motor operating a gear train and lever arm to the piston? Has anyone seen something like this? Would be nice to find one in a surplus store online but no luck yet. I did look at linear actuators at https://www.surpluscenter.com/Linear-Actuators/DC-Linear-Actuators/ and they have enough force and are priced well but they might be too slow. I have seen specs that say it should move fully within 200 ms. An alternative might be an actuator that pulls down the clutch pedal via a steel cable. That would allow normal foot operation. Thanks for any thoughts on this.
