  1. 1. Development of Test Methodology for Electromechanical Linear Actuators

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Isak Linder; [2022]
    Keywords : Electromechanical; linear actuator; test methodology; test rig; rack and pinion; transport delay; latency; spring mass damper; load cell; load force; load unit; test unit; DUT; PID; PID control; control mechanics; cogging torque; torque; flex; stiffness; current saturation; torque control;

    Abstract : This master thesis aims to develop a test methodology for electromechanical linear actuators. A linear actuator acts as a linear motor, converting a power source to linear motion. The electromechanical linear actuator in this project has an electric motor as its power source and uses a rack and pinion system to transfer that power to linear motion. READ MORE

  3. 2. Requirements and Analysis of an Overload Protection Mechanism for an Electromechanical Linear Actuator

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Mats Vesterberg; [2022]
    Keywords : EMA; Electromechanical Actuator; Linear Actuator; Shock load; Protection mechanism; Elektromekaniska ställdon; Linjära ställdon; Shocklaster; Överlastskydd;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives specializes in high-performance electromechanical linear actuators (EMA). The company has developed a range of linear rack and pinion actuators based on a patented load distribution technique that allows multiple pinions to interact with a single gear rack. READ MORE

  4. 3. Verification of elastomer characteristics in electro-mechanical linear actuator

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rohit Karmungikar; [2022]
    Keywords : ANSYS; Aging; Hyperelastic; MATLAB and Mooney-Rivlin; ANSYS; Åldrande; Hyperelastic; MATLAB och Mooney-Rivlin;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives develops electromechanical actuators using a rack and pinion configuration to achieve a combination of high load and high-speed operation. A patented load distribution mechanism enables the use of multiple pinions on a single rack, resulting in a compact unit with high positional accuracy capable of absorbing shock loads. READ MORE

  5. 4. Compression Characteristics of Elastomer Elements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rahul Nagaraj Dixit; [2021]
    Keywords : Continuum mechanics; Hyperelasticity; Mooney Rivlin; Rack and Pinion; Kontinuummekanik; Hyperelasticitet; Mooney Rivlin; Kuggstångsväxel;

    Abstract : Compression of elastomer elements are nonlinear due to the cross-linked molecular structure owing to a property known as hyperelasticity. Hyperelasticity is defined as the nonlinear stress-strain behavior shown by rubber like materials which can be strained up to a range of 700% in tension and up to 40% in compression. READ MORE

  6. 5. Shock Load Absorption of Electro-mechanical Actuators

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Kenan Güler; Milan Andelkovic; [2021]
    Keywords : Shock loads; electro-mechanical actuators; load absorption; Stötbelastningar; elektro-mekaniska ställdon; dämpningsförmåga;

    Abstract : När ett ställdon får som krav att kunna överföra höga krafter i relativt höga hastigheter med en dessutom väldigt hög precision är elektromekaniska ställdon oftast att föredra. En traditionell pinjong-kuggstång-uppställning uppfyller vissa av de kraven, men om kraften ska ökas behövs det fler än ett pinjongpar. READ MORE
