It is well known that pneumatic actuators convert fluid power into mechanical power with a low efficiency. The pneumatic rotary actuators are used in not only marine winches. but also hoists, agitators, and excavators. The efficiency of pneumatic rotary actuators depends on several factors, such as type of actuator. speed, supply pressure. size and geometry of the actuator. This paper presents an analytical and experimental study of the performance of pneumatic rotary actuators. We investigate all the major aspects of the air flow through a pneumatic rotary actuator and points out the main causes of the low efficiency of the actuator. Therefore the design parameters which can lead to optimum performance are obtained.

This paper investigates the performance of an electromagnetic type active control engine mount (ACM) recently developed in the laboratory. The ACM employs the basic structure of the conventional hydraulic engine mount of which upper chamber is connected to a dual magnet electromagnetic actuator. The actuator, that essentially replaces the existing decoupler of the conventional passive hydraulic engine mount, actively controls the upper chamber pressure. Using the linearized ACM model incorporated with the actuator dynamics, we suggest an optimal design of ACM, maximizing the actuator efficiency as well as the vibration isolation efficiency.

Accurate actuator tracking is critical to achieve reliable real-time hybrid simulation results for earthquake engineering research. The frequency-domain evaluation approach provides an innovative way for more quantitative post-simulation evaluation of actuator tracking errors compared with existing time domain based techniques. Utilizing the Fast Fourier Transform the approach analyzes the actuator error in terms of amplitude and phrase errors. Existing application of the approach requires using the complete length of the experimental data. To improve the computational efficiency, two techniques including data decimation and frequency decimation are analyzed to reduce the amount of data involved in the frequency-domain evaluation. The presented study aims to enhance the computational efficiency of the approach in order to utilize it for future on-line actuator tracking evaluation. Both computational simulation and laboratory experimental results are analyzed and recommendations on the two decimation factors are provided based on the findings from this study.

A moving-magnet type pickup actuator has an assembly error. That is, the actuating Part of an actuator is shifted from initial position after we assemble it into yoke. This Is the result of an effect of magnetic force between magnet and yoke. We performed magnetic-analysis using FEA. As a result of simulation, we improved the assembling efficiency for moving-magnet type actuator.

가동자석형 픽업 구동기를 조립하는 경우 조립 전후에 오차가 발생하게 된다. 즉, 렌즈홀더 와 스프링홀더 A'SSY 를 요크에 조립하기 전자 후에 렌즈홀더가 shift 된 양을 살펴보면 상당한 편차가 있음을 볼 수 있다. 이것은 자석 중심과 요크 중심이 어긋날 경우 자석과 요크 사이에 발생하는 자기력의 영향으로 발생하는 것으로, 자기해석을 수행한 결과 자석과 요크의 크기에 따라 자기력의 영향이 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었고, 개발모델에 적용하여 조립성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, the maximum system efficiency of the electro-hydrostatic actuators was experimentally investigated, where small size external gear pumps with volumetric displacement under 1.3 cc/rev were combined with a 400W servomotor as the prime mover. Since the efficiency data of the servomotor, gear pumps and hydraulic cylinder were not provided by the suppliers, experimental apparatuses for their efficiency measurement were extra built up. When a gear pump with a volumetric displacement of 1.27cc/rev was used on an electro-hydrostatic actuator system, the maximum system efficiency was not higher than 70%. This was because the most effective operation ranges of the motor and pump did not coincide each other. In order to match their operation ranges as one of the most crucial design factors, a speed reduction mechanism can be used, such as a timing belt. It was shown in the study that the maximum system efficiency could be increased from 70% to 76% in that way.

Many application in robotics, telecommunication, automation systems etc require powerful actuator. The powerful actuator have Speeds up to high speed and high output torque efficiencies. To accomplish a powerful actuator, these powerful motor have to be combined with gearheads of the same outer diameter. So, we have developed BLDC motor and planetary type gearheads as powerful actuator. The BLDC motor have advantages that compact structure, high efficiency, high reliability. The Planetary type gearheads have advantages that same-axle structure, high torque transmission, low noise in comparison with spur gearheads. In this study included BLDC motor and planetary type gearheads design, manufacture. This time study performed for actuator of precision mechanism.

For high density optical storage, there should be a high NA objective lens and a shorter wavelength laser diode. To secure the disc tilt margin related to the coma aberration, moreover, it's difficult to apply the tilt compensation mechanism into the portable PC. In this paper, we proposed the 3-axis asymmetry pickup actuator with high efficiency symmetric magnetic circuit, which consisted of the top cover type inner yoke for high magnetic flux density, the coil stack unit for the 3-axis independent operation and vertically polarized magnets. This newly suggested actuator features DVD-RAM recording, we achieved the high focus & track AC sensitivity and the greatly stabilized system.
