Actuators: Hydraulic Fluid Pneumatic
• Leakages
• Can be noisy.
• Complete and accurate control over speed, position and
direction.
• Change in temperature change viscosity of fluid
• Cost is high for small systems
Electric Actuators
• In Electric actuators a type of motor that is
responsible for moving or controlling a
mechanism or system.
The primary input power supply is electrical
energy.
• An Electric motor drives the robot links through
some mechanical transmission(gears)
Advantages and Disadvantages :Electric Actuators
• Normal Mode
Hydraulic Actuator
• Activation Mode
Pneumatic Actuator
Hydraulic or Pneumatic Actuator
Components
• Filter: Filter clean dirt, rust, and particles from fuel.
Hydraulic filters keep the hydraulic fluid contaminant free.
• Hydraulic Pump: Creates a vacuum at the pump inlet, which
forces liquid from the reservoir into the inlet line to the pump
and by mechanical action delivers this liquid to the pump
outlet and forces it into the hydraulic system.
• Valve: controlling the passage of fluid or air through a pipe.
• Cylinder :Cylinder has piston and through pressure perform
mechanical task.
• Compressor: Converts power (using an electric motor, diesel
or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in
pressurized air (i.e., compressed air). By one of several
methods, an air compressor forces more and more air into a
storage tank, increasing the pressure.

Components
• After –Cooler: A Charge-Air Cooler is used to cool air after it
has passed through a turbocharger(or compressor).
