Tech guard. Augmented humans that have been bred for superior aggression and fighting skills. They are further enhanced through the use of augmetics.
Used as basic soldiers in the AdMech and as support units in the Titan legions they are also apparently the equivilent of Stormtroppers in the Impeial Guard (Inc. the funky weapons and the armour)

Not sure what you mean but i think you mean a servitor.
Servitors are basically lobotomised humans that can follow basic orders and are sometimes specialised in a certain field e.g. medical servitors.
Sometimes the humans used in the creation of servitors are convicts that have commited crimes against the AdMech and other times they are vat grown humans that are brain dead anyway.
