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 ...

However, one of the major challenges in miniaturizing robots has been the problem of shrinking conventional electromagnetic actuators, which transform electrical energy into mechanical energy and ...

An electromagnetic coil gun takes a line of ... the idea and in a sense turned it upon its head with his flexible PCB actuator. Now the line of electromagnets are the moving part and the ...
