Premium soft electric actuators production company? Soft actuators include any number of actuation technologies (piezoelectric, pneumatic, shape-memory, etc.) that leverage soft or compliant components in their structure. Soft actuators can range from mostly rigid devices with flexible components to highly elastic structures, but their common goal is to improve the resilience and conformability of the soft robotic structures that they power. HASEL actuators are a subset of soft actuators that uses an electrohydraulic mechanism to drive shape change in a soft hydraulic structure. Peano-HASEL actuators are a specific type of HASEL actuator that demonstrates controllable linear contraction on activation, much like biological muscle; their name is a nod to the Peano fluidic actuators that served as an inspiration for their design. At Artimus, we do not differentiate between a HASEL actuator and a Peano-HASEL actuator, instead preferring to refer to our entire suite of devices as HASEL actuator technology.
Humans have only begun to explore the ocean as deep sea environments can be one of the most challenging to design and engineer technologies for. We provide actuator technologies that are capable of meeting the demands of ocean exploration. Currently, we offer custom engineered HASEL actuators to drop into your underwater solution. As our technology is electrically controlled, made of plastic, and contains no liquid, we offer smart, silent, and pressure agnostic actuators for your underwater application.
HASEL actuator force and displacement output is variable and highly controllable with an analog voltage signal. Artimus Robotics provides world class engineering and design solutions to your application. We will bring forward your vision of soft actuation. Compact drones. Currently, drones are large and inflexible. They need open spaces to operate and cannot withstand contact with other surfaces. Soft robots in the form of miniature drones could be designed to fly inside small crevices such as the blades of a turbine engine to scan for damage. Read more details on silent actuators.
HASEL actuator technology enables smart, versatile and compact motion solutions. Originally developed at the University of Colorado Boulder and spun out into Artimus Robotics in 2018, this breakthrough actuation technology details the benefits and eliminates the downfalls of prior soft robotics technologies. Humans are overwhelmed by visual and auditory information. To increase the transmission of information between humans and machines, new physical inputs are crucial. From intelligent buttons, to haptic feedback, to reactive surfaces, new technologies are required that can enable new forms of physical input.
Contracting actuators that can achieve fast and smooth actuation with muscle-like performance. This development kit includes a stack of five linear contracting HASEL actuators. The stacks of actuators are modular and can be operated in a variety of combinations. Additionally, custom shapes and sizes are readily available. Contact us with your exact needs. This portable power supply is a turn-key solution for powering HASEL actuators. The power supply is capable of producing up to 10 kV at frequencies up to 100 Hz. It can be controlled with an analog button, programmed using the provided software, or set to run a pre-programmed demo mode. See more details at https://www.artimusrobotics.com/.
