  ACT-032-044 Actuator

ATA designs, produces and tests custom space-qualified electromagnetic actuators for high performance steering mirrors and other similar applications. The ACT-032-044 is the highest force, fully-redundant linear EM actuator available on the market today. It is vacuum compatible and designed to exceed 1kHz bandwidth with minimum phase loss.
