About this document

Electromagnetic Actuator Fundamentals by Portgas D Ace is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This chapter discusses electromagnetic actuators, which convert electricity into magnetic force to move components like spools or poppets in solenoid valves. It describes the basic components of actuators - coils, yokes, pole pieces, armatures, guide tubes and push pins. There are two main armature shapes: pancake and tubular. Pancake armatures provide high holding force over small air gaps, while tubular armatures are commonly used in hydraulic and pneumatic valves and come in flat, conical and proportiona
