2. 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 .

3. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

   The fly-ball actuator was introduced to R/C modelling in 1951 by Brayton Paul, [5] and consisted of an electric motor and a centrifugal governor connected to a free-running axis that could, with the motor running, pull a rudder control rod by varying degrees. Used with a keyed radio system, this allowed some control over the rudder position by ...

4. Actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

   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. Rotary motors have the ability to be set at any given degree in a field making the device easier to set up still with durability and a set torque.

5. Servomotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomotor

   This is the steering actuator of a large robot vehicle. Industrial servomotors and gearboxes, with standardised flange mountings for interchangeability. A servomotor (or servo motor or simply servo) [1] is a rotary or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration in a mechanical system.

7. Linear motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motor

   Linear motors are commonly used for actuating high performance industrial automation equipment. Their advantage, unlike any other commonly used actuator, such as a ball screw, timing belt, or rack and pinion, is that they provide any combination of high precision, high velocity, high force and long travel. Linear motors are widely used.
