Electric actuator (blue cylinder) on a valve in a power plant. A black handwheel is visible on the actuator, which allows manual positioning of the valve. The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator.
Electric rotary valve actuator controlling a butterfly valve. A rotary actuator is an actuator that produces a rotary motion or torque.. The simplest actuator is purely mechanical, where linear motion in one direction gives rise to rotation.
Electrohydraulic servo valves may consist of one or more stages. A single-stage servo valve uses a torque motor to directly position a spool valve. Single-stage servo valves suffer from limitations in flow capability and stability due to torque motor power requirements.
Electric rotary actuators use a rotary motor to turn the target part over a certain angle. [11] Rotary actuators can have up to a rotation of 360 degrees. This allows it to differ from a linear motor as the linear is bound to a set distance compared to the rotary motor.
Electro-hydraulic actuators (EHAs), replace hydraulic systems with self-contained actuators operated solely by electrical power. EHAs eliminate the need for separate hydraulic pumps and tubing, because they include their own pump, [ 1 ] simplifying system architectures and improving safety and reliability.
By connecting linkages to the nut, the motion can be converted to usable linear displacement. Most current actuators are built for high speed, high force, or a compromise between the two. When considering an actuator for a particular application, the most important specifications are typically travel, speed, force, accuracy, and lifetime.
