2. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

   A linear actuator is an actuator that creates linear motion (i.e., in a straight line), in contrast to the circular motion of a conventional electric motor. Linear actuators are used in machine tools and industrial machinery, in computer peripherals such as disk drives and printers, in valves and dampers, and in many other places where linear ...

3. Actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

   An actuator is a component of a machine that produces force, torque, or displacement, when an electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic input is supplied to it in a system (called an actuating system). The effect is usually produced in a controlled way. [1] An actuator translates such an input signal into the required form of mechanical energy.

4. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

   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.

5. Motor constants - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

   An analogy with a hypothetical linear motor can help to convince that it is true. Suppose that a linear motor has a of 2 (m/s)/V, that is, the linear actuator generates one volt of back-EMF when moved

6. Electro-hydraulic actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-hydraulic_actuator

   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.

7. Brake-by-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake-by-wire

   The hydraulic force generated by pressing the brake pedal is used only as a sensor input to the computer unless a catastrophic failure occurs including a loss of 12-volt electrical power. The brake actuator has an electric pump that provides the hydraulic pressure for the system, and valves to pressurize each wheel caliper to apply the friction ...
