A research team has successfully designed and tested a novel superconducting solenoid. Through the optimization of the pole structure and magnetic field distribution, the spherical aberration ...

Solenoids are used in many applications to provide linear or rotational actuation in mechanical systems. Although driving solenoids can be as simple as switching the current flow on and off, ...

The valves, which can move from fully-open to fully-closed in as little as 30 msec, reportedly can fit in a fraction of the package space ordinarily needed for comparably-rated valves using a linear ...

Available in ISO, miniature, 8-mm, and 9.4-mm versions, the 5F and 5J solenoid-valve connectors feature a fully molded design that enables superior environmental integrity over field wire versions.

The new solenoid design features an enlarged pure iron yoke (radius increased from 31.75 mm to 38 mm, length doubled from 58.6 mm to 120 mm). This modification significantly reduces the first ...

Several years ago, Paul Rako, in collaboration with the late, great Bob Pease, wrote a terrific article about the finer theoretical and practical points of electromagnetic solenoid-driver circuits. 1 ...
