Tractor cylinder MA4

for agricultural vehiclesfor crop sprayersfor combine harvesters

Product overview TiMOTION's MA4 series is a compact electric linear actuator designed for installations with limited space and for operation in harsh environments. The range includes MA4-N (Normal), MA4-T (T-Smart with embedded PCBA) and MA4-S (Small) variants; MA4-S can reduce retracted length by up to ~70% under specific stroke conditions, enabling use in extremely constrained installations.

Key features

• Maximum load: 2,500 N (push/pull)
• Stroke range: 25–1000 mm
• Speeds: up to 43.1 mm/s no-load; 5.1 mm/s at max load (depending on configuration)
• Retracted length examples: ≥ 215 mm (MA4-N/-T); ≥ 152 mm (MA4-S) depending on options
• Ingress protection: IP69K (static)
• Voltage: 12/24 V DC (thermal switch option available)
• Operating temperature: -40 °C to +85 °C (full performance typically +5 °C to +45 °C)
• Feedback: mechanical potentiometer; Hall sensor ×2; T-Smart embedded PCBA outputs
• Control protocols: SAE J1939, Modbus RTU (with T-Smart/BUS options)

Variants & options MA4-N (Normal), MA4-T (T-Smart) and MA4-S (Small). Options include multiple cable exits and connector types (e.g. T = 1+1: cable gland + Molex 6P), manual drive, thermal switch variants, various limit-switch configurations and BUS-control integration.

Dimensions & connectors (notes) Retracted length and overall dimensions depend on chosen stroke, end fittings and cable/connector configuration; consult product diagrams for exact measures. T = 1+1 denotes one cable with cable gland plus a Molex 6P connector in the diagrams.

Applications

• Agricultural machinery: tractors, combine harvesters, sprayers, balers
• Industrial vehicles and equipment: AGV/AMR, material handling
• Lawn mowers and outdoor equipment
• Commercial and industrial systems requiring compact, weatherproof linear actuation
