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 ...

Credit: EDM Aerotec Piasecki Aircraft has selected Germany’s Volz Servos to supply redundant electromagnetic actuators for a program to demonstrate damage-tolerant flight controls for autonomous ...

A soft electroactive gel enables untethered robots to deform, grip, and move using only external electric fields, eliminating ...

Abstract: A MEMS magnetic actuator microswitch has been fabricated which, in addition to the primary cantilever bending, exhibits a secondary wiping motion during overdrive. A self-wiping action is ...

Each region of the electromagnetic spectrum has a range of wavelengths associated with it. The range of wavelengths affects the way each type of EM wave behaves and interacts with matter.

Abstract: In this paper, an experimental study to investigate maximum drive current handling capability of a compact electromagnetic actuator is presented. The actuator design consists of a mobile ...
