An actuator that is used to provide motion for secondary equipment with the help of an electric motor is ideally called an electric actuator. Unlike other types, this actuator uses electricity as its source of energy. Most electric actuators operate by using a gear arrangement to broaden or reverse the actuation arm. In most cases, electric actuators are preferred over pneumatic, hydraulic or mechanical actuators. The following points would describe the reasons behind it.
What are the Advantages of Using Electric Actuators?
When it comes to motion control applications in different industrial sectors, engineers are found to be fond of electrical actuators. Here’s why:
Smoother Design: Unlike hydraulic or pneumatic actuators, electric actuators come with simpler design and fewer spare parts that are easy to maintain and come with high reliability factor.
Easy Integration: It is much easier to integrate an electrical linear actuator than it is to integrate either a hydraulic or pneumatic solution. The former comes with microprocessors and programmable controllers that manage the operation of most modern industrial machinery.
More Precision: Electric actuators are known for providing higher level of precision in controlling the motion. This is because it enables the speed, torque and force to modify at different stages during the movement.
Safer: Electric actuators are devoid of any chances of leakages or contamination like their counterparts. Hence, it is considered to be a safer, cleaner and more convenient option.
Costs Less: Electrical actuators prove to be more economical in the long run than their counterparts. They require least maintenance, are rugged and easy to operate and install, last longer and can be reliably used in different environmental conditions.
Other Benefits: With simply connectable wires and cable, electric actuators can be easily assembled. Besides, these are more compact with smaller footprint and operate quietly without making any annoying noise.
