This article presents the design and implementation of a linear actuator based on NiTi Shape Memory Alloys with temperature and position measurements based on a magnetic sensor array and a set of thermistors. The position instrumentation is contact free to avoid friction perturbations; the position signal conditioning is carried out through the calculation of the response of each magnetic sensor, selecting the closest sensor to ensure accurate results on the full range of movement. Experimental results validate the accuracy of the position sensing with a competitive behaviour.
