Headlight and Mirror Positioning Mechanisms
Compact Motion. Seamless Adjustment. Enhanced Driver Experience.
Today’s vehicles rely on advanced headlight and mirror positioning systems to improve safety, visibility, and user comfort. From adaptive headlights that follow the road to power mirrors that self-adjust or fold at the touch of a button, precise linear motion is at the core of these systems.
Helix Linear Technologies designs miniature lead screws and compact actuators that provide smooth, quiet, and repeatable motion for automotive lighting and mirror assemblies. Our components are ideal for tight packaging requirements, enabling refined movement with minimal space and power consumption.
Built for the high-vibration, temperature-sensitive automotive environment, Helix motion systems ensure reliable operation throughout the life of the vehicle.
Key Benefits:
- Smooth, low-noise motion for headlight tilt, aim, and swivel adjustment
- Compact designs ideal for mirror folding and positioning systems
- Reliable operation in temperature extremes and harsh conditions
- Customizable travel, speed, and mounting options for precise fit and function
Helix components bring intelligent adjustability to modern automotive systems by enhancing performance, comfort, and safety on the road.
