Servo

A rotary actuator that allows for control over angular position.

Notes

A Servo is a rotary actuator component used in advanced machinery, appearing as an ingredient in recipes such as the Advanced Combustion Engine, Robotic Assembly Line, Solar Generator, and Wind Turbine. It is produced by its own recipe and stacks up to 100 units at 500 g each. Since servos are required for high-tier power generation and automation, establishing a steady supply early in the industrial chain helps avoid bottlenecks when your town scales up.
