Linear actuators are presented now in the highest variety. There is no doubt that whatever project you are planning, you will find the needed actuators for it. To choose the right option, you need to ...

Plant engineers at Eskom’s Majuba Power Station in South Africa have been continuously looking for ways to improve efficiency and reliability. The six-unit, 4,000-MW, supercritical coal-fired plant ...

Among these applications is a linear actuator used in a throttle control system designed specifically for harsh environments. This particular linear actuator is used to control the power to a cement ...

Motors and end effectors come in many shapes and sizes but, compared to actuators that focus on position control, end effectors commonly also integrate force sensing to ensure that objects being ...

Though the initial price point for electromechanical actuators tends to be higher than hydraulic cylinders, their popularity is growing due to energy efficiency, increased uptimes, simplified ...

We present a suite of algorithms and tools for model-predictive control of sensor/actuator systems with embedded microcontroller units (MCU). These MCUs can be colocated with sensors and actuators, ...

Active flow control using plasma actuators offers a novel and increasingly influential method for manipulating aerodynamic flows. By utilising the dielectric barrier discharge mechanism, these devices ...
