Actuator (Automotive)

A device that performs a mechanical action in response to an input signal, which may be electrical or fluidic.

Actuator (Explosives)

A mechanical device, such as a pin puller, operated by a Pressure Cartridge.

Actuator (Hard Drive Recovery)

A mechanical assembly that positions the read/write head over the appropriate track.

Actuator (Import Cars)

1.Any device that receives an output signal or command from a computer and does something in response to the signal 2. A device that translates hydraulic pressure into mechanical energy

Actuator (RAID Drive Recovery)

A mechanical assembly that positions the read/write head over the appropriate track.

Actuator (Storage Media)

The internal mechanism that moves the read/write head to the proper track. The Quantum actuator consists of a rotary voice coil and the head mounting arms. One end of each head mounting arm attaches to the rotor with the read/write heads attached at the opposite end of each arm. As current is applied to the rotor, it rotates, positioning the heads over the desired cylinder on the media. Also known as the rotary actuator or positioner.

Actuator (Technology)

This is the part of a hard drive that the read / write arms attach to. It is controlled by an electrical signal sent to it that extends or retracts the arms so that they can move across the tracks on the drive platters.
