Linear vs. rotary actuators

Difference between linear and rotary actuators

A linear actuator is a device that turns the rotary motion of a direct current, low-voltage motor into a linear motion. Its output motion is in line with the output shaft itself. This makes it possible to elevate, adjust, tilt, push or pull heavy or hard-to-reach items with just the push of a button.

As for rotary actuators, they are those whose output motion is circular. Their purpose is to convert the hydraulic pressure of a fluid into rotational power, and output an instant torque.
