Module 51A: Actuators A (Optional)
Outcome
Experiment with the properties and capabilities of actuators.
Indicators
(a) Describe the purpose and function of an actuator.
(b) Differentiate between the characteristics of different types of actuators (e.g., DC brushed and brushless motors, linear actuators, solenoids, electromagnets and servos).
(c) Match types of actuators with specific tasks (e.g., DC motor to drive and linear actuator to move arm).
(d) Investigate how limit switches and diodes are used to restrict actuator motion.
