Linear actuators
Currently, one of the most demanding fields in the aerospace sector is that of antenna deployment following the launch and its subsequent positioning in a continuous manner. For this purpose, very high resolution and irreversible linear movements need to be achieved. Linear transformation systems are applicable in deployment mechanisms, which, in turn, are used in equipment and systems that previously require a solid structural fixing. Typical examples include antennae, deployable appendages such as solar panels (in space) and deployable radiators, aeronautics, military equipment etc.
