What controls the force developed by an actuator?
3.2 Conventional torque control for motors Motors are widely used as torque actuators in controllers. Since armature current is proportional to the generated motor torque and the actuator force, generated motor torque and actuator force can be controlled by controlling the motor current.
What determines the force of an actuator?
There are a couple of factors involved to find the right force, including the load, the angle at which it is being pushed and the size of the load. Most of our actuators have customizable force!
What makes up a blend door actuator motor?
A blend door actuator is made up of an electric motor that turns a plastic gear set in one direction or another which is connected to an air control door pivot at the final drive of the unit.
How to test blend door actuator, climate control, heater?
In some cases you can manually test the blend door actuator in others you can use computer for the diagnostics. There are usually a few blend door actuators that are part of the hvac system. This way you will know which blend door is bad and needs to be replaced. ► Like Us on FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/worldmechani…
How can I tell if my blend door actuator is bad?
To test the blend door operation and too double check that you are changing the correct actuator motor turn the blower motor on and work the door in each way. You will be able to feel the air change temperature or vent level. Compare the bad actuator to the new unit.
How do you install a new actuator on a car?
Install the new part in place as you insert the mounting screws by hand. Be careful not to cross thread the mounting screws because they thread into the plastic housing and can easily strip, (do not over tighten). Once all screws are in place firmly push the wiring harness connector back into the actuator.
