FAQs

A rotary actuator is a mechanical device used to produce rotary motion, rotating objects around an axis, unlike linear actuators that generate linear motion along a straight path.

Rotary actuators find applications in various industries such as manufacturing, robotics, automotive, aerospace, agriculture, and more, commonly used in valve control, material handling, indexing tables, robotic arm movement, and conveyor systems.

Rotary actuators can produce angular rotation, oscillation, indexing, and continuous rotation in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

The main components typically include a housing, shaft, bearings, gears (if applicable), seals, and actuation mechanism (hydraulic, pneumatic, or electric).

Hydraulic rotary actuators use pressurized hydraulic fluid for high torque output and precise control, while pneumatic actuators utilise compressed air for faster response times and simpler installation.
