  2. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

    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.

  3. Rotary actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_actuator

    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. The most common actuators are electrically powered; others may be powered pneumatically or hydraulically , or use energy stored in springs .

  4. Ball screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_screw

    A ball screw involves significantly more parts and surface interactions than many similar systems. While a basic lead screw is composed of only a solid shaft and a solid nut with simple mating geometries, a ball screw requires precisely-formed curved contours and multi-part assemblies to facilitate the action of the bearing balls.

  5. Rack and pinion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion

    A rack and pinion has roughly the same purpose as a worm gear with a rack replacing the gear, in that both convert torque to linear force. However the rack and pinion generally provides higher linear speed — since a full turn of the pinion displaces the rack by an amount equal to the pinion's pitch circle whereas a full rotation of the worm screw only displaces the rack by one tooth width.

    Schematic of the actuator mechanism for an aircraft landing gear. In engineering, a mechanism is a device that transforms input forces and movement into a desired set of output forces and movement.
