An origami-inspired bistable gripper, featuring a dual-function custom PET linear solenoid actuator that acts both as an actuator and a sensor, is presented. Movements in the permanent magnet plunger, ...

Developed for use in sorting applications where fast operation and zero power dissipation is critical, the model RSA13/5 rotary solenoid features a permanent magnet that allows self-holding bi ...

Solenoid locking force is 1,000 N. The interlock also has a built-in radio frequency identification (RFID) sensor to detect the actuator and indicate the guard is closed.
