An actuator includes a yoke extending about a rotation axis. A coil is wrapped about the yoke. A rotor having a direct axis and a quadrature axis is supported for rotation about a rotation axis relative to the yoke. The rotor has a reluctance along the direct axis that is different than a reluctance along the quadrature axis to rotate the rotor when current is applied to the coil.
