  2. Rotary actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_actuator

    Hydraulic or pneumatic rotary actuator, using a rack and pinion. Both hydraulic and pneumatic power may be used to drive an actuator, usually the larger and more powerful types. As their internal construction is generally similar (in principle, if not in size) they are often considered together as fluid power actuators. [2]

  3. Pneumatic actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_actuator

    A pneumatic actuator mainly consists of a piston or a diaphragm which develops the motive power. It keeps the air in the upper portion of the cylinder, allowing air pressure to force the diaphragm or piston to move the valve stem or rotate the valve control element. Valves require little pressure to operate and usually double or triple the ...

  4. Actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

    Pneumatic actuator operating a valve through a rack-and-pinion mechanism. [7] A pneumatic actuator is similar to a hydraulic one but uses a gas (usually air) instead of a liquid. [8] [9] Compared to hydraulic actuators, pneumatic ones are less complicated because they do not need pipes for the return and recycling of the working fluid. On the ...

  5. Pneumatic motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_motor

    Pneumatic motors generally convert the compressed-air energy to mechanical work through either linear or rotary motion. Linear motion can come from either a diaphragm or piston actuator, while rotary motion is supplied by either a vane type air motor, piston air motor, air turbine or gear type motor.

  6. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    Air (or other gas) pressure is the power source for pneumatic valve actuators. [1] They are used on linear or quarter-turn valves. Air pressure acts on a piston or bellows diaphragm creating linear force on a valve stem. Alternatively, a quarter-turn vane-type actuator produces torque to provide rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve.

  7. Rotary valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_valve

    A rotary valve (also called rotary-motion valve) is a type of valve in which the rotation of a passage or passages in a transverse plug regulates the flow of liquid or gas through the attached pipes. [1] The common stopcock is the simplest form of rotary valve. Rotary valves have been applied in numerous applications, including:
