High-speed solenoid valves and electromagnetic actuators represent a critical intersection of electrical and mechanical engineering, enabling rapid, precise control of fluid or gas flows in a myriad ...

However, not all innovations are equal, and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 115, SECTION 7: JOURNAL OF PASSENGER CARS: ELECTRONIC AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS (2006), pp. 1046-1056 (11 pages) This paper presents an empirical dynamic model of a single spring ...

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 ...

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 ...
