Mechanical actuators encompass purely mechanical force-transmission and motion-conversion devices used in aerospace mechanisms, covering components such as push-pull rods, bellcranks, torque tubes, screw-jack assemblies, cable-and-pulley systems, and cam-driven mechanisms, manufactured from high-strength aluminium alloys, titanium, and steel to meet fatigue, corrosion, and airworthiness requirements.
