Motorized Systemes!!!
I have to add that I've only had very bad experiences with motorized faders etc. Because these small steps or servo electric motors are maximum sensitive and if you accidentally grab it from time to time during an automated process by hand, the little engine is broken very quickly. Even when switching on such systems, you always have longer waiting times, because all the engines first go to find the zero point, then analyze the control range and only then approach the currently required position and that everything can take up to a full minute or longer and creates a rigien hype.
In that case I would never buy such a controller myself, far too sensitive. If only one motorengine will be broken most likely be issued an error which will make the entire system unusable until this engine repaired and that usually means that you can buy a new device because today's electronicalworkinghouers costs for a technician are so high and you have to disassemble the device of course to replace such an engine.
So my advice: hands off!
