Infographic: What Is Your Primary Machine Motion Source?

An electronic survey of Control Design readers was conducted in August 2013 in order to identify usage and application trends of HMI & industrial PCs among the industrial machine builders that comprise Control Design's readership.

Electric motors and actuators are the primary machine motion source used by Control Design readers (40%), with Complementary electric plus pneumatic power sources (21%), Complementary electric plus hydraulic power sources (11.5%), Hydraulic Motors/Actuators (9%), Pneumatic Motors/Actuators 9%) less widely used as a primary power source.
