The broad definition of the actuator is: a drive device that can provide linear or rotary motion, which uses a certain driving energy and works under the action of a certain control signal. The actuator uses liquid, gas, electricity or other energy sources and converts it into a driving function through motors, cylinders or other devices. Its basic types have three drive modes: Part-Turn, Multi-Turn and Linear.
The three main points of knowledge for the use of electric actuators are as follows:
1. Lubrication
Although the lubrication of electric actuators generally does not require very special maintenance, the lubrication added by Heli Automation at the factory is sufficient for 100,000 operations, but we still need to replace them regularly in some particularly dry or other harsh environments. Lubricating grease to ensure the normal use of the actuator, and the motor still needs to be checked once a year (whether the motor is operating normally, whether the heating element is normal, whether there is condensation, etc.).
