FAQ Questions
How many actuators can the 4-channel control box operate simultaneously?
Our PA-CB40-4 synchronized motion control system operates 4 actuators together simultaneously.
What is the difference between momentary and non-momentary control modes?
Momentary control mode requires the user to continuously press and hold the wireless remote’s button to move the actuators. Once the button is released, motion immediately stops. Non-momentary control mode allows the actuator to continue moving automatically after a single button press until it reaches its limit switch or is stopped manually.
How does the control box handle synchronization between multiple actuators?
Each actuator sends real-time positional feedback signals to the control box through its Hall sensors. The control box continuously monitors these feedback pulses and automatically adjusts motor speed and current to ensure all actuators move in perfect unison—even under uneven loads or changing conditions.
IN SUMMARY
The PA-CB40-4 is part of our next-generation control boxes offering advanced smart and safety features. Compact, efficient, and easy-to-use, our 4-channel control box for linear actuators marks an exciting upgrade in our product lineup for synchronous motion control of multiple actuators.
