Market Overview

Market Research Future (MRFR) estimates the global actuators market size to grow at 6.20% CAGR and expected to reach approximately USD 85.11 billion by 2030. 

An actuator is equipment that turns energy into motion. It is mostly utilized to exert force on an entity in order to execute various mechanical activities. It is a mechanical device that transfers energy created by compressed air, electricity, or liquid into various types of motion, such as linear and rotary motion. Actuators are typically found in industrial or manufacturing applications, where they are found in devices like switches, motors, valves, and pumps.

Key Types of Actuators:

  • Electric Actuators: Electric actuators use electrical energy to produce linear or rotary motion. They are known for their precision, control, and ease of integration into automation systems.
  •  
  • Pneumatic Actuators: Pneumatic actuators use compressed air to generate mechanical motion, making them suitable for applications requiring rapid and powerful movements.
  •  
  • Hydraulic Actuators: Hydraulic actuators use hydraulic fluid to create mechanical motion. They are commonly used in heavy-duty applications requiring high force output.
  •  
  • Piezoelectric Actuators: Piezoelectric actuators convert electrical energy into mechanical motion using piezoelectric materials. They are known for their high precision and fast response times.
  •  
  • Electroactive Polymers (EAPs): EAPs are a type of smart material that changes shape in response to electrical stimulation. They are used in various applications, including robotics and medical devices.
