Title: Describe the options for power supplies, silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs), solenoid valves, actuators, and motors to control movement systems.
Course: Technology of Robotic Design (21009-36) > Section: Exploring the Components of Robotics and Automation Systems

Description should include

- fluid (e.g., pneumatic, hydraulic)
- electromechanical systems
- power supplies
- type of movement (e.g., rotation, linear).

Process/Skill Questions:

- What are the power options in a robotics or automation system?
- Under what circumstances might it be more appropriate to use pneumatic fluid power?
- Under what circumstances might it be more appropriate to use hydraulic fluid power?
- What are typical limitations in movement systems?
