This looks much better, without getting into proprietary information can you tell us what's driving the square shape of the "black box" area?

Looks great Ian! That will help a lot even if the gearbox stays rectangular.

My understanding is that it's the most compact we can make them. To produce a round housing for the motor/gearbox, it would increase the size.

I will see what I can do about having some of these made up.

Ian,

Looking at your web page you show the L12-30-210-12-S as out of stock. Any estimate when you might have more in stock? Not in a rush, just need to get one coming.

Thanks

Significant stock may be another couple of weeks, but for one unit, we can build it for you. Give us a call and we'll set you up.

Did the ROUND type ever get made, or did the bean counter veto that request?

Hi Skeeter,

We made a prototype that used a cylindrical casing over top of the actuator. There seemed to be very little interest so we moved on to other things.
