Abstract

The actuator is of the roto-linear type and comprises a sleeve, a clevis and an operating rod which transmits the load. An electromagnetic sensor that measures and controls the load is placed inside the actuator, at the shoulder of the clevis. This sensor is associated with measurement means for processing the signals from the said winding, which winding are torus-shaped and arranged inside a field frame which is magnetically closed by an armature.
