Solenoid offers increased stability
The use of an electrically driven permanent magnet rotor in the Geeplus' new solenoid provides fully energised torque which is available for the fastest rotation in either direction.
The use of a permanent magnet instead of a spring has resulted in a new bistable rotary solenoid from Geeplus, which the company claims has a significant increase in speed of operation Because the more common rotary solenoid devices use a spring to provide force for return operations, the available torque for forward operation is reduced in overcoming the strength of the spring itself

Hybrid steppers take position, precisely
In a frame measuring only 20mm square, the new DSM2032H and DSM2035H hybrid stepping motors from Geeplus offer 200 steps per revolution, making them ideal for applications requiring precise position.
The use of an electrically driven permanent magnet rotor in the new device, provides fully energised torque which is available for the fastest rotation in either direction.
The bistable construction also allows the device to hold its end position at either limit of rotation with no power applied.
This results in reduced heat dissipation which in turn permits higher power to be applied during the movement phase to enhance the speed of operation even further.
The new solenoid is designed to replace existing axial displacement and nondisplacement devices in 40mm diameter. Request a free brochure from Geeplus ...
