Most electromagnetic actuators are rotating motors, or some variation on the theme, like servos. However, it’s possible to do linear actuation with electomagnetics, too. [Adrian Perez] demonstrates ...

The integration of rotary and linear motions within a single actuation system has emerged as a transformative development in modern electromechanical engineering. Rotary-linear actuators combine the ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts may be interested in a new linear actuator and electromagnetic locks driver created by serial Kickstarter entrepreneur and electronics designer Patrick ...

Linear actuators are devices that convert any rotary or spinning motion into a linear (straight) motion. In simple words, they help machins move forward and backward. The most basic type of linear ...

Linear actuator uses a lead screw driven by a permanent magnet dc motor to create linear motion from a dc voltage. When power is removed linear actuator will hold its position. However, if a force ...

Fig. 2 Shoulder actuation testbed for exoskeleton: (a) Motion range of the shoulder joint mechanism. (b) Structure of the integrated pneumatic–electromagnetic linear actuator, a type of fusion hybrid ...

Improvement in the design of medical equipment for better-streamlined functionality and performance is influenced by a number of critical factors. The research, design, modeling, testing, prototyping, ...

The characteristics of magnetic actuators and their sensors when they're first energized can usually be ignored, except in applications requiring speedy response. Magnetic actuators and sensors are ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight – Application Notes) Improvements in the design of medical equipment for better streamlined functionality and performance is influenced by a number of critical factors. The ...
