An actuation valve, or actuated valve, is a valve equipped with an actuator that automatically opens, closes, or modulates the valve position in response to a control signal. The actuator—powered by electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic energy—eliminates the need for manual operation, enabling remote and precise control of fluid flow within a system. These valves are essential in applications requiring automation, reliability, and quick response times, such as manufacturing, water treatment, oil and gas, and HVAC systems. Actuated valves improve process efficiency, reduce the risk of human error, and support integration with control systems for seamless operation and monitoring.

Gear Actuators
A gear actuator is a powerful and precise motion-control device that uses a motor and gear system to convert energy into controlled movement. By reducing speed and multiplying torque through gears, these actuators provide the strength and accuracy needed to move heavy loads or operate with exact positioning. Commonly used in valve control, robotics, industrial machinery, and automotive systems, gear actuators deliver reliable performance in applications where precision and durability matter most.
