Voice coil actuators have been around for many years, it is a type of direct drive linear motor. It consists of a permanent magnetic field assembly (permanent magnets and ferrous steel) and a coil assembly. Actuators are used for a wide range of applications. They compete most directly against moving-magnet rotary motors and pneumatic drives. Voice Coil Actuators can be designed in different ways.
