Parallel-Coupled Micro-Macro Actuators
This thesis presents a new actuator system consisting of a micro-actuator and a macroactuator coupled in parallel via a compliant transmission. The system is called the Parallel Coupled Micro-Macro Actuator, or PaCMMA. In this system, the micro-actuator is capable of high bandwidth force control due to its low mass and direct-drive connection to the output shaft. The compliant transmission of t...
متن کاملPolymeric Micro Sensors and Actuators
Sensors and actuators using polymeric systems, constitute one of the most promising fields of “smart polymers”, and it is becoming ever more important to associate artificial sensing and actuating systems with living organisms. Testing of some practical applications has now started in industry. The aim of this Special Issue is to develop a basic understanding of the field, its supporting techno...
متن کاملLarge Displacement in Relaxor Ferroelectric Terpolymer Blend Derived Actuators Using Al Electrode for Braille Displays
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) based polymers are attractive for applications for artificial muscles, high energy density storage devices etc. Recently these polymers have been found great potential for being used as actuators for refreshable full-page Braille displays for visually impaired people in terms of light weight, miniaturized size, and larger displacement, compared with currently us...
متن کاملLarge-displacement Electromagnetic Actuators Using the Meander Springs Partially Exposed to Magnetic Field
We present the design, fabrication and test of a large-displacement electromagnetic actuator using the meander springs, exposed partially to magnetic field. We compare two prototypes including the conventional prototype F with the meander springs exposed fully to magnetic field and the present prototype P with the meander springs exposed partially to magnetic field. In the experimental study, t...
متن کاملDynamic Characteristics of a Hydraulic Amplification Mechanism for Large Displacement Actuators Systems
We have developed a hydraulic displacement amplification mechanism (HDAM) and studied its dynamic response when combined with a piezoelectric actuator. The HDAM consists of an incompressible fluid sealed in a microcavity by two largely deformable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes. The geometry with input and output surfaces having different cross-sectional areas creates amplification. By co...
