>Has anyone else done this or know anyone working >on it?? >-Roman I cannot remember who did it, but I recall someone doing it with a piezo feedback element attached to the voice coil. On the other hand my work project is to attempt to emulate something very similar consisting of a piston to pump helium gas in a cooler. The piston moves about 4 to 5 mm at max movement, and has an LVDT attached to provide positional feedback. The whole thing also gets bogged down in drying to minimise the vibration of the mechanical unit to stop the satellite it will be on from vibrating and spoiling the nice pretty pictures the camera will be taking. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
