The DC-motor Precision Linear Actuator products began at Newport Corporation in 1977-1978. Our founder and current president created the 1000-series Linear Actuator and its controllers as an employee of Newport and manager of the Industrial Systems Division. In 1979, he formed TS Products to manufacture those products exclusively for Newport. For five years, all the Linear Actuators and Controllers found in the Newport Catalog were manufactured by TS Products.
