12Lf Servo Series
⚠ Notice
The information for 17Lf series shown on the website is for advance publicity. We are happy to release 17Lf series in the third quarter of 2024 after completing certifications and technical documentations. The drawings have already been listed on the digital archive, and other technical data such as user manuals, datasheet will be posted in advance as soon as they are ready.

The 2nd Generation of mightyZAP actuators supporting position, current and speed control. Both MODBUS RTU & IR Open Protocols available
12Lf Servo Series Features
- The 2nd generation mightyZAP series supporting dynamic speed & current control as well as
position control along with position & current feedback - Built-in drive circuit, position sensor, 12mm diameter coreless DC motor and gear box
- 27/40/53/90mm stroke option
-
Rated Load of 12N ~ 100N according to gear ratio for each stroke
* Speed is inversely proportional to Rated Load, so the stronger the Rated Load, the slower the speed. -
Support RS-485 or TTL / PWM communication
* TTL / PWM communication version operates by automatically recognizing the input TTL / PWM signal* When using PWM communication, only the position command is available without position feedback (For feedback feature, use TTL or RS-485 communication)
-
Both MODBUS RTU and IR open protocols available
(Default : IR Open protocol)
