Valve gates get electromagnetic action.A new electromagnetically actuated ac·tu·ate tr.v. ac·tu·at·ed, ac·tu·at·ing, ac·tu·ates 1. To put into motion or action; activate: electrical relays that actuate the elevator's movements. 2. valve-gate cylinder reportedly delivers 110 times more accurate position control than hydraulic or pneumatic pneumatic /pneu·mat·ic/ (noo-mat´ik) 1. pertaining to air. 2. respiratory. pneu·mat·ic adj. 1. Of or relating to air or other gases. 2. operation. Introduced at the recent Euromold show in Frankfurt, Germany, the new valve design from Plastic Engineering & Technical Services (P.E.T.S.) Inc., Auburn Hills, Mich., is actuated by neodymium neodymium (nē'ōdĭm`ēəm), metallic chemical element; symbol Nd; at. no. 60; at. wt. 144.24; m.p. about 1,021°C;; b.p. about 3,068°C;; sp. gr. 7.004 at 20°C;; valence +3. Neodymium is a lustrous silver-yellow metal. rare-earth magnets Rare-earth magnets are strong, permanent magnets made from alloys of rare earth elements. Rare-earth magnets are substantially stronger than ferrite or alnico magnets. The magnetic field typically produced by rare-earth magnets can be in excess of 1.2 teslas. , which remain cool during use. The new control system allows the valve to be closed precisely in increments, if desired. Tel: (248) 373-0800 * PTDirect: 367BT |
