actuators

Actuators are devices that convert energy—such as electrical, hydraulic, or pneumatic—into motion or physical action. They serve as the "muscles" of machines, enabling movement like opening a valve, moving a robotic arm, or adjusting a door. When they receive a control signal, actuators produce precise mechanical movement to perform specific tasks. They are essential components in automation, robotics, and machinery, allowing systems to interact with and modify their environment efficiently and accurately.
