- A mechanism that puts something into automatic action
- An actuator is a mechanical device for moving or controlling a mechanism or system. It takes energy, usually transported by air, electric current, or liquid, and converts that into some kind of motion.
- (Actuators) Devices that perform the actual work commanded by the on-board computer. Actuators can be in the form of a motor, relay, switch, or solenoid.
- (Actuators) Hydraulic cylinder Swashplates are used in 'hydraulic motors' requiring highly accurate control and also in 'no stop' continuous (360o) precision positioning mechanisms. These are frequently driven by several hydraulic pistons acting in sequence. ...
- (Actuators) Mechanisms for activating process control equipment by use of pneumatic, hydraulic, or electronic signals.
- (actuators) ( motors)/ effectors ( claws, etc.)
- An electrical mechanism for moving or controlling something indirectly instead of by hand, such as a door lock. Output device the PCM controls such as solenoids, relays, fuel injectors and stepper motors.
- A mechanical assembly that positions the read/write head over the appropriate track.
- In a closed-loop control system, that part of the final control element that translates the control signal into action by the control device.
