This invention maps changes in magnetic field strength to changes in actuator shape without seeing noise from the actuator or reducing performance. The field of soft robotics has been rapidly gaining ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) The field of soft robotics seeks to create compliant, adaptive actuators that mimic the remarkable abilities of biological systems. Conventional robotic actuators, built from ...
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] demonstrates ...
PITTSBURGH (Nov. 13, 2017) ... One technology uses magnetic fields to generate mechanical work. The other enhances the magnetic properties of 3D-printed materials. Combined, they could lead to ...
Vacuumschmelze GmbH & Co. KG (Hanau, Germany) has developed its new alloy VACOFLUX 18HR. VACOFLUX 18HR is the successor to VACOFLUX 17, originally designed for diesel injection applications, and has ...
The need to create more viable soft sensors is increasing in tandem with the growing interest in soft robots. Several sensing methods, like capacitive stretch sensing and intrinsic capacitive ...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers demonstrated that microchannel heat exchangers in HVAC units can keep refrigerants evenly and continually distributed by inserting a device called a ...
Magnetic levitation systems and actuators represent a significant advance in precision motion control, utilising magnetic forces to suspend and manoeuvre objects without physical contact. These ...
