Product Categories for actuator
Valve Positioners - (130 companies)
Valve positioners compare a control signal to a valve actuator’s position and move the actuator accordingly. They are used with both linear valves and rotary valves Search by Specification | Learn more about Valve Positioners
Air Cylinders - (530 companies)
Air cylinders are pneumatic linear actuators that are driven by a pressure differential in the cylinder's chambers. They may be single-acting (with a spring return) or double-acting Search by Specification | Learn more about Air Cylinders
Hydraulic Cylinders - (539 companies)
Hydraulic cylinders are actuation devices that utilize pressurized hydraulic fluid to produce linear motion and force. Search by Specification | Learn more about Hydraulic Cylinders
Linear Thrusters - (71 companies)
Linear thrusters use double-acting pneumatic, hydraulic, or electrohydraulic cylinders mated to plates and shafts to provide cyclical linear motion. They are used in conveying, positioning and inspection systems. Search by Specification | Learn more about Linear Thrusters
Linear Actuators - (518 companies)
Electric linear actuators have an output rod that provides linear motion via a motor driven ball screw, lead screw, or ACME screw assembly. The actuator's load is attached to the end of a screw or rod and is often unsupported Search by Specification | Learn more about Linear Actuators
Electrohydraulic Valve Actuators and Hydraulic Valve Actuators - (91 companies)
Electrohydraulic valve actuators and hydraulic valve actuators convert fluid pressure supply pressure into motion Search by Specification | Learn more about Electrohydraulic Valve Actuators and Hydraulic Valve Actuators
Piezoelectric Actuators - (41 companies)
Piezoelectric actuators are devices that produce a small displacement with a high force capability when voltage is applied.  Search by Specification | Learn more about Piezoelectric Actuators
Electric Rotary Actuators - (135 companies)
Electric rotary actuators drive components rotationally via electromagnetic power. They typically have control and indexing capabilities Search by Specification | Learn more about Electric Rotary Actuators
Valve Actuators, All Types - (546 companies)
Valve actuators mount on valves and, in response to a signal, move a valve to a desired position using an outside power source Search by Specification | Learn more about Valve Actuators, All Types
Electric Actuators - (249 companies)
Electric actuators mount on valves which, in response to a signal, automatically move to a desired position using an outside power source. Single-phase or three-phase AC or DC motors drive a combination of gears to generate the desired torque level Search by Specification | Learn more about Electric Actuators
Hydraulic Linear Actuators - (77 companies)
Hydraulic linear actuators use a cylinder and hydraulic fluid for motive force Learn more about Hydraulic Linear Actuators
Voice Coil Actuators and Motors - (16 companies)
Voice coil actuators and motors generate force when subjected to an electrical current or magnetic field. The coil within the motor is the only moving component, allowing for high speed motion and accurate positioning. Search by Specification | Learn more about Voice Coil Actuators and Motors
Pneumatic Valve Actuators - (249 companies)
Pneumatic valve actuators adjust valve position by converting air pressure into linear or rotary motion Search by Specification | Learn more about Pneumatic Valve Actuators
Hydraulic Rotary Actuators - (142 companies)
Hydraulic rotary actuators use a pressurized, incompressible fluid to rotate mechanical components. Search by Specification | Learn more about Hydraulic Rotary Actuators
Manual Valve Actuators - (71 companies)
Manual valve actuators do not require an outside power source. They use a handwheel or lever to drive a series of gears whose ratio results in a higher output torque compared to the input (manual) torque Search by Specification | Learn more about Manual Valve Actuators
