Lightweight Linear Actuator with Concentratedly-placed Stationary Coils
Abstract
This paper presents a novel lightweight linear actuator using permanent magnets and having its coils on the stator concentratedly. The rated force is 6N, the stroke is 30mm, and the weight is below 300g owing to its unique structure. The machine is to be applied to e.g. a pick-and-place actuator of tiny electronic parts, and the performance for the application is confirmed through experiments with a prototype.
