LECTURE 3: Actuators, Encoders, Relays and Switches. Actuators: An actuator is the device that brings about the mechanical movements required for any physical process in the factory. Internally, actuators can be broken down into two separate modules: the signal amplifier and the transducer. The amplifier converts the low power control signal into a high power signal that is fed into the transducer, which actually converts the amplified control signal into the required form of energy. Figure 3.1.
Encoders are used in Many Industries Encoders have become an essential component to applications in many different industries. The following is a partial list of industries making use of encoders: â¢ Automotive â The automotive industry utilize encoders as sensors of mechanical motion may be applied to controlling speed. â¢ Consumer Electronics and Office Equipment â In the consumer electronics industry, encoders are widely used office equipment such as PC-based scanning equipment, printers, and scanners.
