| Abstract |
This paper describes a novel design for a powerful linear actuator which harnesses the highly unstable, normal-force of magnetic attraction to produce linear motion via a ratchet mechanism. The ratchet permits bi-directional operation when activated and prevents motion when the actuator is not activated. The operational principles and results from the prototype are presented. |
