Direct Drive Actuation

Direct Drive Actuation is an actuation method in which a motor or actuator is directly coupled to a load without intermediate mechanical transmission elements, thereby eliminating backlash, friction, and efficiency losses associated with gears, belts, or other power transmission components.
