Comparison of Actuating
System
Hydralic
Good
for large
robot and heavy
pay load
Higher
power/weight ratio
Stiff system, high
accuracy, better
response
No reduction gear
needed
Electric
Good
Pneumatic
Many components
for all sizes
of robots
are usually off-theBtter control, good shelf
Reliable
for high precision
robots
components
Higher compliance No leaks or sparks
than hydraulics
Inexpensive and
simple
Low pressure
compared to
hydrauluc
