A video of the assembly does a better job than I can at explaining the procedure. It is rather simple once all the components are ready. The hardest part is probably mounting the encoder disc on the rotor and securing the encoder sensor on the motor mount. Temporary 3D printed rod ends are shown in this process.


I'll leave a couple of snaps of the finished products as well.
The finished actuators side to side. On this image, temporary 3D printed rod ends are shown.
The finished actuators facing each other, front and rear views. On this image, temporary 3D printed rod ends are shown.
