Solenoids – electromagnetic actuators 0.8–19 W

Solenoids are electromagnetic actuators that create fast linear motion by having a coil generate a magnetic field that affects a moving core. This provides fast response, good repeatability, and reliable operation. The range includes models with power levels from approximately 0.8–19 W and various stroke lengths and force levels. Depending on the design, solenoids can be delivered as pull-type, push-type, or bistable models and can also be customized regarding cabling, connectors, and mechanical interfaces.

The function and basic properties of solenoids – solenoids

Solenoids operate based on an electromagnetic field created when the coil is activated and the moving core is displaced linearly. This design allows for fast and precise activation, high repeatability, and good operational reliability in cyclic movements. These features make solenoids ideal for applications such as valve control, locking mechanisms, automation systems, dispensing devices, laboratory equipment, and medical technology applications.

  • Fast response and repeatable function
  • Power levels from approximately 0.8–19 W
  • Available as pull, push, and bistable models
  • Precise linear activation via electromagnetic control

Options and performance for solenoids

By choosing the right type of solenoid, force, stroke length, and response time can be tailored to specific requirements. Pull-type solenoids pull in the core, push-type solenoids push it out, while bistable models maintain their position without continuous power. Together, these features make solenoids flexible for a variety of applications with demands for both speed and force.

  • Pull-type – pulls in the core for fast activation
  • Push-type – pushes out the core for mechanical impact
  • Bistable – maintains its position without constant power

Performance varies depending on the model, but typical force values range from a few Newtons up to significantly higher levels depending on stroke length, coil design, and operational voltage.

Customizations & connections for solenoids

Solenoids can be customized both electrically and mechanically to suit demanding applications. Customized stroke lengths and piston designs ensure optimal performance, while customer-specific cabling, connectors, and mounting details facilitate integration. If needed, special windings, spring forces, or material selections can also be offered to meet specific environmental requirements.

  • Customized stroke lengths and piston design
  • Custom cable connections & connectors
  • Choice of pull, push, or bistable designs
  • Special customization if needed

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about solenoids

What is a solenoid?
