The ME4840 and ME4940 spring return modulating actuator line has been expanded to include a wider input signal range. They are now onboard selectable with a Jumper J3 selectable range from: 0-10Vdc, 2 ...

Most experiments in flexible robot actuators are based around pneumatics, but [Ayato Kanada] and [Tomoaki Mashimo] has been working on using a coiled spring as the moving component of a linear ...

Air-spring actuators are noted for their durability. But they also hold several other advantages over conventional pneumatic cylinders. Air springs are rubber/fabric bellows that support and contain a ...

The MGM Brakes LTR-L3 3" Long Stroke series spring brake actuators have a double-diaphragm design for an increased reserve stroke, helping to reduce out-of-adjustment The MGM Brakes LTR-L3 3" Long ...

This proof of concept shows an interesting way of making robotic legs. They are using programmable spring actuators to make these legs function as though they had a “reflex”. The builder pulls the ...

Enidine introduced gas spring replacement actuators for commercial aircraft storage bins. The aluminum actuators are designed to be a lightweight (up to 50% less) and maintenance-free alternative to ...

An air-spring actuator powers the stretcher bed to the required loading height. Back injuries are the number one reason for the premature end to the careers of emergency-medical technicians. The ...
