AN ELECTROMAGNETIC ACTUATOR TO ACHIVE SOFT LANDING AND THE CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

Problem:

Electromechanical actuators are replacing pneumatic and hydraulic actuators as they provide more reliable and accurate control, they are more efficient and less hazardous to the environment. Moreover, compactness along with rugged, simple in construction and lower cost makes them suitable to be used in many domestic and commercial applications, which require on and off linear physical movements. The motion is induced by the current supplied to a coil of wire, which then give rise to a magnetic force, then this force is used to control the motion of the electromechanical actuator being controlled.

Technology:

The present invention relates to an electromagnetic actuator and a method for controlling the movement of an armature of the electromagnetic actuator.

Advantages:

•No sensors are used. •Our invented signal uses the formula. •Uses Uni-Polar Solenoids. •Uses voltage signal •Open Loop System.
