Fault tolerant electromechanical actuators redundancy mechanics

By B Biju Prasad

An actuator is a device that moves or controls some mechanism. It converts the control signal to a mechanical action through a linear or rotary output motion. Actuators may be based on hydraulic, pneumatic, electric, thermal, or mechanical means. They are being increasingly driven by software in modern day technology. The actuation process can be compared to the functioning of a human body similar to

our muscles that effects the movement of arms or legs. Actuators are used in satellite launch vehicles, missiles, aircrafts, automobiles, ships and wherever we need a process to be automated.
