An actuator includes a base, a stationary frame mounted on the base, a moveable frame supported on the base, and a driving unit. The stationary frame includes a receiving cavity, a first sidewall, a neighboring second sidewall, an upper end, and an opposing lower end. The stationary frame defines a first cutout in the first sidewall, a second cutout in the second sidewall, and a third cutout passing through the lower end. The first cutout and the second cutout communicate with the receiving cavity, and the third cutout is located between the first cutout and the second cutout and directly communicates with the first cutout and the second cutout. The moveable frame includes a main body received in the receiving cavity and a protruding portion received in the third cutout. The driving unit includes a guide pole, a first metal clip, a second metal clip, and a SMA wire.
