Actuator Styles and Their Operation

Explanation of Parameters

Symbol	Parameter	Unit	Explanation
D	Datum	-	Reference line to establish actuator's FP
FP	Free Position	mm or angle	Normal actuator position with no force applied. Shown as angle from D
OP	Operating Position	mm or angle	Actuator's operating position; causes change of output
TTP	Total Travel Position	mm or angle	Position at actuator's maximum travel
PT	Pretravel	mm or angle	Travel angle or travel distance between FP and OP
OT	Overtravel	mm or angle	Travel angle or travel distance between OP and TTP
OF	Operating Force	g	Operating force to move actuator from FP to OP
