A voice coil actuator, also known as a non-commutated DC linear actuator, is a type of direct drive linear motor. The name “voice coil” comes from one of its historically first applications: vibrating ...
How do electric actuators contribute to productivity in today's motion-centric automation environment? John • Exlar: The flexibility provided by electric actuators greatly enhances a design engineer's ...
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 ...
Liebherr-Aerospace sees electro-mechanical actuators as replacements for servo-control actuators on legacy aircraft, but limited to less critical control surfaces, such as spoilers. Credit: Liebherr ...
[Harrison Low] published some 3D-printed linear actuators, which generated a lot of interest. He got a lot of advice from people on the Internet, and he took it to heart. The result: an improved ...
