Moving coil actuators

The moving coil actuator developed by SMAC allows the client to measure, test and verify with a single unit, simplifying the process, reducing components required and saving time.

A particular advantage of this unit is the patented “soft land” feature which gives extremely accurate sensing of product location or dimensions. The soft-land is a routine which allows the actuator rod or gripper jaw to land on the surface of a component with a low programmed force. This is particularly useful for handling delicate or high value components.
