Pneumatic linear actuator.

Featuring a mounting surface suited for a robotic gripper or other end effector Other use:in Computer Graphics, an end effector is the position and orientation of the last joint in a chain of joints

In Robotics, an End effector is the device at the end of a robotic arm, designed to interact with the environment.
, the L130 series of 4 short stroke linear actuators A linear actuator is a device that develops force and motion from an available energy sourcelinearly. Basic operation
A linear actuator is used to generate controlled physical linear displacement. There are various means of achieving this linear displacement.
 have and anti-rotation guide rod to assure precise positioning Precise Positioning is a term used to describe techniques to obtain the location of an object to better than a few centimeters of accuracy.

Historically precise positioning was associated with surveying and geodesy.
. Applications include the automated movement of parts within a single stage positioning system or as a Z-axis for a linear transfer robot. Stroke lengths are 15, 30, 60 and 90 mm respectively. All have an extending force of 54 lb-ft and a retracting force of 40.5 lb-ft. The gripper mounting surface is 63 x 39.6 x 8 mm.
