An actuator is most efficient when operating ... Galfenol is the latest magnetostrictive material to be invented, and is currently under development. Originally devised in 1999 by the Magnetic ...

Intelligent, agile material-based actuators are giving it to them and even anticipating their desires. Although shape-memory alloys (SMAs), piezoelectrics, and magnetostrictive materials have been ...

This property is actively used in various devices, including magnetostrictive actuators. Such devices can be used to very accurately control the movement of any technical elements, such as moving ...

Smart materials, such as magnetostrictive materials and piezoelectric materials, are typically used as drive elements. For instance, piezoelectric crystals are currently utilized in high-precision ...

actuators and implants owing to their structural variety and low production costs. Nevertheless, polycrystalline Fe-Ga alloys are limited by a tradeoff between large magnetostrictive strain and ...

Magnetostrictive materials have a large response to external strain or applied field, which allows them to be used as sensors or actuators in structural health monitoring, Internet of Things and ...

Not very much by normal standards! The PiezoMotor LEGS actuator “walks” along a rod, pushing it as it goes. For some applications however resolution is of primary interest rather than range of ...

Resembling a magnetostrictive sensor with its sensor ... user to match the analog output of the sensor to the motion of the actuator or cylinder on a stand-alone basis rather than the user having ...

Available in ranges of 300 mm (11.8”) to 1,200 mm (39.4”), they are suitable for hydraulic cylinder and actuator feedback ... cylinder or actuator body. Via magnetostrictive technology ...
