Electric Actuators

Electric actuators are mechanical devices used to control the movement or positioning of various mechanical components in a wide range of applications. These actuators convert electrical energy into mechanical motion to replace traditional hydraulic or pneumatic systems due to their precision, reliability, and ease of control. An electric actuator utilises input in the form of a power supply–powering an electric motor and providing output as mechanical energy. Electric actuators are essential in modern automation and control systems, offering precise and reliable motion control solutions across various industries.

Advantages of Electric Actuators:

Electric actuators offer unprecedented benefits, including: 

  • Precise control and positioning.
  • Quiet operation compared to pneumatic or hydraulic systems.
  • Minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Energy efficiency.
  • Clean operation (no hydraulic fluids or air compressors).

Popular Types of Electric Actuators:

Electric actuators come in various types. Some of the most common types include:

  • Electric Linear Actuators – These actuators produce linear motion in a straight line or along a guided path. An electric linear actuator is most commonly used in applications where linear movement or positioning is required, such as opening and closing valves, moving conveyor belts, or adjusting the position of machine components.
  • Rotary Actuators – These actuators produce rotational motion and are used when a component needs to be rotated or turned. Some typical applications include opening and closing dampers, adjusting the angle of a camera or antenna's angle, or controlling a vehicle's steering system.
  • Rod-Style Electric Actuators – Rod-style electric actuators are electromechanical devices used in various applications to convert electrical energy into linear motion. They consist of a rod or piston that extends and retracts when an electric current is applied. These actuators are commonly used in industrial automation, manufacturing, and robotics to perform tasks such as pushing, pulling, lifting, and positioning objects.
  • Rodless Electric Actuators – Rodless electric actuators are devices used in multiple applications to convert electrical energy into linear motion without using a traditional rod or piston. They are commonly used in automation and industrial systems requiring precise and controlled linear movement. These actuators offer several advantages over conventional rod-type actuators, including a longer stroke length, compact design, and greater installation flexibility.

Typical Applications of Electric Actuators: 

Electric actuators find applications in a wide range of industries, including:

  • Aerospace – for controlling aircraft components.
  • Automotive – for adjusting seats, mirrors, and other components.
  • Healthcare – for medical devices like hospital beds.
  • Home automation – for opening and closing windows, doors, and blinds.
  • Manufacturing Automation and Robotics.
