Actuators based on magnetic microwires

The aim of the event is to introduce attendees, through an expert lecture and a seminar, to miniaturized actuators based on magnetic Ni-Fe-Ga microwires. Their importance is growing with current developments in robotics, optics, biomedicine, and precision engineering in general. These microactuators, which use shape-memory alloys, offer a repeatable relative elongation of up to 12% and a tunable transition temperature between -170 °C and 400 °C. Their long-term lifetime exceeds 9×10⁶ cycles, and they withstand a repeatable stress of 100 MPa.
