The word simply means to start the machine. However, the term &#8220;actuator&#8221; refers to a specific family of machines that move or control something &#8211; with the emphasis on movement. They convert electrical, pneumatic or other energy into linear or rotary motion. As the name suggests, <a style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/botland.com.pl\/585-silowniki-liniowe\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">an electric actuator<\/a> requires voltage to operate. An engine is also needed. This can be a traditional electric motor or, for example, a stepper motor, depending on the needs of the application. Movement is generated by means of components, about which more when describing the types of actuators. Most often they are placed in a metal or plastic housing. An optional gearbox varies the speed, while an electronic control system and possible additional sensors, such as encoders, regulate the movement parameters.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-324eae6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"324eae6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Types of electric actuators<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9a4f017 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9a4f017\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We will first describe the two main types by mode of operation &#8211; linear actuators and rotary actuators, about which more and in more detail later.

Imagine an electric car window or a dentist&#8217;s chair with adjustable height and angle, where there must be a way to position the object exactly as desired, rather than in one of two extreme positions.

In the case of robots or manipulators, it is often necessary for robot components to be able to rotate around their own axes.
