Steering Column For Dynamic Steering Component Description: Actuator
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi SQ5, 2017 Audi Q5, 2016 Audi SQ5, 2016 Audi Q5, and 2015 Audi SQ5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The actuator applies torsion to the steering pinion for the purposes of steering angle correction. The actuator has a strain wave gear driven by an electric motor. This type of gearing is ideal for converting the fast rotational movement of an electric motor to much slower rotational movements.
