Design And Simulation Of A High Thrust Linear Oscillatory Actuator

An actuator is widely used in many applications either in automation, transportation, productions, robotics, logistics, etc. There are many types of actuator available in the market. An actuator is a device that converts energy into limited mechanical motion. The form of energy could be electric, hy...
