Should I choose an electric or a hydraulic linear actuator?

Electric actuators are a popular choice where speed and accuracy are needed. They're usually compact and demand little maintenance. The main advantage of hydraulic actuators is their high load-carrying capacity. They're also more suitable for continuous running or use in hazardous areas as they're less prone to overheating than electric alternatives.
