In fluidpower actuators, the power of a liquid or gas flow is adjusted by means of suitable devices. These devices are controlled by an electric input signal, and transform the applied power into a specified mechanical variable such as stroke (angle of rotation), speed (rotatory speed), or force (torque) of a longitudinal or rotatory motion. The thermal energy of the pressure medium is not utilized in any of these cases.
