I need to know the applicable flexible material that I can use for my project which is about part of desk can move with it's organic shape, using a linear actuator.
Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) make good elastic materials for high-quality furniture applications. You can google for specifications of TPU e.g. from BASF's Ellastolan product range.
However, you may find out that you need to have a quite elaborate support construction in addition to your linear actuator. A thing you have to be always aware for application on a desk is that the desk must be "hard" towards usual forces from the upper side such as someone writing on the desk.
Good success for your project!
Azorl , i need to use the flexible material to support the function of the liner actuator , that i apply my project on how to use the actuators and sensors with office furniture ,
in my country most offices have a circulation problems ,and need more free space between the desks to Facilitate movement within the vacuum, And so it was suggested that the project where one can move easily between 2 desks with flexbilty
