10x Force, 4x Stroke, 30% Lower Cost for High Volume Applications

The DART Smart Actuator delivers exceptional motion performance while minimizing system size and complexity. Its integrated electronics eliminate the need for external drivers, reducing wiring, weight, and total power consumption.

This balance of power, precision, and compactness makes it ideal for embedded and space-constrained applications, offering:

• Longer travel range, up to 25mm
• Higher speeds, 10mm/second
• Modularity for greater design freedom
• Scalability, with capacity and cost suited to high-volume applications

Made in the USA

Flexible Options for Faster Integration

Enhance performance and speed your development with DART Linear Stages. The optional precision stage adds stiffness and smooth, stable motion using a crossed-roller bearing slide that minimizes runout, pitch, roll, and yaw across the full 25 mm travel range—ideal for demanding alignment and positioning applications.

For rapid prototyping, DART Developer Kits include all required hardware, cables, and New Scale Pathway™ software for motion control, diagnostics, and scripting. Connect via USB and start testing in minutes with no external controller required.

Advancing Embedded Motion Control for Compact, High-Performance Systems

The DART™ Smart Actuator and Stage redefines what’s possible in embedded motion control, delivering precision without compromise for engineers building the next generation of miniaturized, high-performance systems.
