The solution for major tasksPulling solenoid
Pulling solenoids can also be used as haptic actuators. These actuators can be integrated oscillating systems These actuators can be integrated into single or coupled damped oscillation systems, which enables them to deal with big masses.
- Solder-free connection technology: Reliable process contacting of stranded wires and enameled wires using insulation displacement connections (IDC) or directly with the printed circuit board (press-fit).
- Active damping: With targeted double impulses, it is possible to influence the damping of an entire system.
- Rapid & high levels of force: Measures involving reduced eddy currents achieve the required rapid build-up of flux and force.
- Dynamic properties: Here, high forces can be achieved within 1-3 ms for moving masses of > 300 grams.
The solution for big tolerance chainsLinear solenoid actuator
These types of solenoids operate in active haptic systems that are based on the physical principle of an oscillating system with single damping. Due to the linearity across a wide range of linear solenoids, tolerance problems become a relatively minor issue.
- Plug & Play: Depending on the solution, it is possible to achieve direct mounting and contacting with the PCB.
- Big tolerances: Tolerances of > 1 mm can be achieved without any problem by influencing the characteristic curve in a targeted manner.
- Typical service life: Depending on the application and the armature mounting, 1-5 million switching cycles are possible.
