actuator
An actuator is a mechanical component responsible for moving and controlling a mechanism or system. It acts as the 'muscle' of a machine by converting energy, such as electricity or air pressure, into physical motion.
예시
3 / 5The smart lock uses a small actuator to turn the bolt when you use the smartphone app.
The digital lock contains a tiny mechanical mover to shift the locking pin via the phone application.
Each hydraulic actuator must undergo a rigorous safety inspection before being installed in the aircraft.
Every fluid-powered moving part needs a strict safety check before placement in the airplane.
I think the actuator in my car's window is broken because it won't slide up anymore.
I believe the motor part for my car window is failing because the glass is stuck down.

Think of the word 'actor.' Just as an actor performs the action on a stage, an actuator performs the physical 'action' of a machine.

In robotic systems, the actuator serves as the critical interface between electronic control and physical environment.
academicIn robots, the moving component acts as the main link between computer signals and real-world movement.
Our firm is looking to source high-precision linear actuators for the new assembly line project.
businessOur company is trying to buy very accurate straight-motion parts for the new factory setup.

a mechanism controlled from a distance
자주 혼동되는 단어
An activator starts a process (like a chemical or social one), while an actuator is specifically a mechanical device that creates physical motion.
A sensor detects information from the environment, whereas an actuator performs an action based on that information.
사용 참고사항
The term is primarily used in technical fields like engineering, robotics, and manufacturing. It refers to the specific part that makes things move rather than the entire machine.
자주 하는 실수
Learners often use 'motor' for everything, but 'actuator' is the correct term for components that create linear motion or operate valves in industrial contexts.

어원
Derived from the Latin 'actus' (a doing or driving) and 'actuate' (to put into motion).
문법 패턴
문화적 맥락
The term is increasingly relevant in modern culture due to the rise of 'Industry 4.0' and smart home automation where actuators control everything from smart blinds to robotic vacuums.

관련 어휘
관련 단어
subfactile
C1To subtly manipulate or influence the underlying facts or foundational elements of a situation, often to guide an outcome without drawing attention. It describes the act of working beneath the surface to reshape how a project or narrative is constructed.
microchromtude
C1Characterized by extremely subtle or minute variations in color that are often imperceptible without specialized equipment. It describes a state of high chromatic complexity where hues shift in very small, detailed increments.
hypersumcide
C1Describing a state of systemic collapse or self-destruction caused by the excessive accumulation and aggregation of components or data. It characterizes a system that fails because the total sum of its parts has become too overwhelming to manage or sustain.
circumjugious
C1A rare term referring to the state or quality of being joined, yoked, or bound together in a circular or encompassing fashion. It describes a structural or conceptual unity where elements are linked around a central point or perimeter.
perinascize
C1A rare noun denoting the state, process, or environment surrounding the emergence or birth of a concept, system, or entity. It specifically refers to the transitional phase and the immediate peripheral conditions present at the very moment of a new beginning.
misdocancy
C1The act or instance of incorrect, faulty, or negligent documentation, specifically referring to the failure to accurately record information in professional or clinical settings. It describes the state where records are inconsistent with the actual events or data they are intended to represent.
envivency
C1To infuse a concept, artistic work, or atmosphere with a renewed sense of life, vividness, and energy. It describes the act of making something abstract feel tangible or animating a previously stagnant situation.
comheredist
C1To systematically unify and distribute inherited elements, traditions, or data into a cohesive modern framework. It describes the active process of integrating legacy components into a functional, distributed system.
disnascy
C1A formal term describing a state of failed or arrested emergence, where a concept, project, or entity fails to fully develop or be born. It refers to the quality of being perpetually 'almost started' but never achieving a functional or realized existence.
devolile
C1Describing something that is subject to or characterized by the delegation of authority from a central body to a subordinate or local level. It is often used to describe legal or administrative processes where powers are transferred downward.
