Linear Actuator & Lifting Mast Selection Calculator

Use these engineering tools for preliminary selection of multi-stage lifting masts, servo motor drive systems, and standard motor drive systems. Enter the known parameters to estimate stroke, closed height, extended height, speed, current, and rated load.

Results are for preliminary selection only. Final product choice depends on duty cycle, mounting direction, load condition, safety factor, operating environment, and mechanical structure. Send your parameters to our engineering team before placing an order.

Multi-stage Lifting Mast Calculator

Enter any one known value: stroke, initial closed height, or maximum extended height. The calculator estimates possible 2-stage to 8-stage structures in both standard safety range and non-standard limit range.

Unit All dimensions are in millimeters. Results are rounded to the nearest 10 mm.
Enter at least one value.
Standard Safety Range
Non-standard Limit Range

Servo Motor Selection

Estimate performance across standard levels 1-8 by entering motor and transmission parameters. Servo calculations assume load speed equals no-load speed.

Input fieldsVoltage, motor power, no-load RPM, reduction ratio, and lead screw pitch.
Complete all motor fields.

Standard Motor Selection

Estimate performance for standard motor drive systems. This model uses a load speed based on no-load speed divided by 1.25.

Output fieldsNo-load current, load current, no-load speed, load speed, and rated load.
Complete all motor fields.

Selection FAQ

These answers help define the basic engineering information needed for actuator and lifting mast selection.

Can I use these results as final specifications?

No. The calculator is intended for preliminary selection. Final confirmation should include load direction, duty cycle, speed target, safety factor, environment, and mounting structure.

What if I know only the required height?

Use the lifting mast calculator and enter the known maximum extended height. It will estimate the possible stroke and closed height across multiple stage counts.

Why are there standard and limit ranges?

The standard safety range is better for stable design margin. The non-standard limit range is for compact designs that need engineering review before production.

What information should I send for a custom solution?

Send application scenario, required stroke, closed height, extended height, load, speed, voltage, mounting direction, operating frequency, and environment.
