San Jose, CA

Applied Engineering (AE) began in 1979. Located in San Jose, California, we provide cutting-edge, unique solutions for our electromechanical contract manufacturing and linear actuator builds. We are committed to our employees, thus making them “owners” with personal investment into the company. We also care about our clients and want to ensure they are receiving the best products and services.

Customers benefit from our dedicated engineering, friendly customer service, and expert application assistance. We strive to surpass customers' expectations for fulfilling specific design requirements. While a large portion of our sales involve special, custom, or private-labeling requirements, we take pride in our large stock base of standard products, located in Anaheim, California, USA.

Solutions include: Stepper motors, stepper linear actuators, stepper drivers, controllers and indexes, stepper gearmotors, and integrated stepper motor-driver/controllers; Brushless DC motors, speed controllers, gearmotors, integrated motor-controllers, and accessories; Planetary Gearboxes, including standard inline, inline helical, right angle, and rotating output flange types; Servo Motors, drivers, and systems; Linear Actuators including positioning tables/stages, ball screws, linear guides, lead screws, belt-driven actuators, and rod-style actuators; HMIs, PLCs, and Integrated HMI/PLCs; Rotary and Linear Encoders, including optical, magnetic, and capacitive types; AC motors, controllers, and VFDs; motion control Accessories including brakes, cables, and more.

Anaheim Automation is the wise choice wherever precision positioning or speed control is required.

12 Volt Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is a device that transforms rotational motion into push or pull linear motion, which can then be used to lift, lower, slide, or tilt machinery or materials. They offer effective, maintenance-free motion control...

Electric Actuators

Electric actuators are devices capable of creating motion of a load, or an action that requires a force like clamping, making use of an electric motor to create the force that is necessary...

Linear Actuators

A linear actuator is a means for converting rotational motion into push or pull linear motion, which can be used for lifting, dropping, sliding, or tilting of machines or materials. They provide safe and clean...

Linear Motion Products

High-precision, linear motion goods are essential components at the core of several items which are generally used in machine tools and equipment for manufacturing semiconductors. These items are utilized...

Types of Linear Actuators

A linear actuator actuates, moves, in a linear, straight, line to complete or start a process. There are a variety of terms used to describe a linear actuator such as ram, piston, or activator. They are very common in...

Ball Screws

Ball screws are mechanical linear actuators that consist of a screw shaft and a nut that contain a ball that rolls between their matching helical grooves. The primary function of ball screws is to convert rotational motion to linear motion. Ball nuts are used in...

Linear Slides

Linear slides, also referred to as linear guides or linear-motion bearings, are types of bearings that allow smooth and near-frictionless motion in a single axis. Machine tools, robots, actuators, sensors, and other mechanical equipment often require moving components in a straight line in any of the three-dimensional axes...

Linear Bearings

Linear bearings are a type of bearing that "bear" or support the load of the carriage during its single-axis linear movement and provide a low friction sliding surface for the guide rails. In a linear guide, the carriage is the component that travels in a straight line, back and forth, along the length of the guide rail...

Lead Screw

A lead screw is a kind of mechanical linear actuator that converts rotational motion into linear motion. Its operation relies on the sliding of the screw shaft and the nut threads with no ball bearings between them...
