  2. As application details are entered, the results panel on the right will update with the actuator series that meet your application criteria.
  3. After you have entered your information, click the "Generate Results" button and calculations will be performed to determine individual products that meet the demands of your application.
  4. Click the "Compare" button to view the actuators that meet the demands of your application and sort by the criteria most important to you.
