Performance. In the case of a two-phase diaphragm and linear actuator the stroke of a two-phase actuator is double that of a corresponding one-phase actuator. In addition, a two-phase actuator provides an inherent “midway” stroke rest position, which is desirable in some applications. In the case of bending rolls, multiple phases provide additional degrees of freedom of bending.
