Hi, I am looking for a motor to control via Arduino.

I know such a thing exists but am not sure exactly what it's called.

Basically it is a motor but instead of rotating a shaft it make the shaft go in and out.

It doesn't need to apply much pressure just a little tap.

I thought it might be called an actuator and is similar to a solenoid I suppose.

Any idea where I would find such a thing, what it would be called and how to control via Arduino.

Thanks.

Phil
