Control Servo with DC Analog Signal

[StAnkys]

I want to use a high-torque servo to "pull" the cable to apply a manual brake.  I have a DC signal that varies in level depending on input to it.

Most servos require a ~2ms square wave AC signal to apply constant maximum torque.  How can I apply this torque with just my DC signal?

Ideally I want:

(small 0-2.5V DC signal) --> if it exceeds 2V, trigger relay to allow 5V higher amperage DC current to power servo --> pull cable to apply mechanical brake

What I need help with:
1) What kind of servo could be used?  I need VERY high torque and cheap cost, but do not care at all whatsoever about precision/feedback/digital/etc.  Should I use something else to accomplish this goal?
2) How do I set up this "gateway" that only triggers the relay if a certain voltage input is reached (it will always have *some* voltage reading, so it can't just be run straight to the relay)?
3) How do I power the servo with a DC current, as described above?

Thank you,

You could feed the DC into an ADC channel to monitor the voltage and then use this to drive the servo. But servos dont tend to have a lot of torque - check the datasheet for the servos you are thinking of. Since servos are normally connected to the mcu output pin then it cant draw more than around 40mA - not a lot.
Depending on the torque required you may want to use a standard motor or stepper motor instead
