Hi! A 12v linear actuator is perfect for projects like these. This solution is widely used in home automation—lifting tables, pull-out TVs, and hidden shelves. Progressive Automations has a variety of models, from miniature ones for compact designs to powerful ones for large furniture. They all operate on 12V, making connection simple. You can choose a model based on speed, stroke length, and force. For example, if you need to lift tabletop, choose model with more pushing force. Conversely, for pull-out elements, compact and fast actuator is suitable.
