ACTUATORS & ACCESSORIES |
An actuator, in essence, is an industrial instrument that makes another goes tick; operates or moves. It first becomes on the receiving end of a source of energy before a conversion is made into torque energy, which through further transmission, aids in the process of moving or controlling a particular mechanism or system in which it was incorporated into.
The three commonly used types of actuators in the industrial settings are electric actuators; hydraulic actuators and pneumatic actuators. These three different types of actuators uses different energy sources but successfully converts them into the same result of having generated torque energy in targeted movements of objects or results in their own way and direction. In specific, electric actuators uses form of electric energy as a base of its energy conversion; the hydraulic actuators utilizes liquid solutions in driving the energy change; whereas for pneumatic actuators, they are operated mainly using compressed air as its main source of power.
Amongst the art of fluidics control elements is the product often mentioned/utilized - solenoid valves. A solenoid valve also uses various types of actuators as a major part of its mechanism in controlling of the flow or mixture of fluids by generation of an electromagnetic field. Besides the usual popular 2 way Solenoid valves, the IMR pneumatic solenoid valves for use on pneumatic actuators are too, available for purchase with the IMR Group NOW!

As much as actuators are not frequently mentioned or lauded enough in present times, the fact is that actuators are present in almost every machinery or even simple operational systems around us today, and indeed if we look closer enough, they certainly do play a crucial role in our everyday lives.
