WL3635 High Torque Electric Rotary Solenoid Guide

The electric rotary solenoid is a mechanical device that changes electrical energy to rotating mechanical energy. While linear solenoids perform a push or pull operation, rotary solenoids perform rotational operations up to a certain degree. In addition, this type of solenoid consists of components such as a copper coil, magnetic armature, a shaft, a return spring, and a housing. When electric energy passes through the device, the produced magnetic field makes the inner armature rotate.

Electric rotary solenoid is used in industrial automation, automotive, smart lock, medical devices, vending machines, and other devices which require precision control of rotation within a confined space.

How Does Electric Rotary Solenoid Work?

The electric rotary solenoid works on the electromagnetic principle. As soon as an electric current goes through the copper coil of the solenoid, a magnetic field is formed inside the housing. Then, the magnetic force pulls the inner armature that turns through the mechanical structure. In addition, the angle of rotation passes to the output shaft producing controlled angular movement.

However, when electrical power stops, the return spring resets the armature and shaft back to their original positions. The angle of rotation could be preset and customized, depending on application requirements. Most rotary solenoids rotate either clockwise or counterclockwise. Meanwhile, some rotary solenoids rotate bi-directionally.

Due to its fast response time and high accuracy of the rotation, electric rotary solenoid can be used in automation systems for rotating movement.

Compact DC rotary solenoid Industrial Application

Due to their stability and compact size, rotary solenoids have many uses in industrial and commercial fields. Electric rotary solenoids are used in various applications like sorting systems, packaging systems, robot arms, valve control systems, and automation systems for fast and accurate rotary movement.

In the automotive industry, electric rotary solenoids are used in door lock systems, fuel control systems, transmission systems, headlight adjustment systems, and HVAC control modules. With the help of rotary solenoids, automotive systems become fast and reliable.

Also, electric rotary solenoids are used in the smart lock systems and security systems for controlling the actions of locking and unlocking. Moreover, electric rotary solenoids control dispensing and positioning of vending machines and self-service kiosks.

Laboratory automation, diagnostic equipment, and healthcare equipment are benefited by the accurate rotary movement of the device. Lastly, electric rotary solenoids are used in household appliances like coffee machine, smart switches, and other appliances.

High torque electric rotary solenoid advantage and Disadvantage

High torque electric rotary solenoid Advantage

The electric rotary solenoid has many benefits for industrial applications. They have a small size, which allows easy installation in a limited space. Fast response time and precise rotary movement allow using rotary solenoids in automation systems. In addition, this kind of solenoids is characterized by a simple design, reliability, low power requirement, and stability of performance.

Long service life is achieved thanks to durable construction and stability under continuous operation. Due to low power requirements and a wide range of customization options, electric rotary solenoids allow flexible OEM application.

Moreover, rotary solenoids act quicker and easier controlled than motorized systems. Electric rotary solenoids are better suited for applications that involve short-angle rotation and repeated operations.

High torque electric rotary solenoid Disadvantage

Although there are advantages, there are also disadvantages associated with electric rotary solenoids. One of the major disadvantages is limited rotation angle, which is inappropriate for constant rotation. Motorized solenoids have lower torque for big mechanical loads compared to rotary solenoids.

In addition, rotary solenoids can overheat due to the continuous energy supply and cause degradation of performance. Certain applications can require precise positioning, which is possible only with more complex control systems.

Wrong voltage and duty cycle increase heat and reduce the longevity of electric rotary solenoids.

Electric Rotary Solenoid Troubleshooting Guide

If an electric rotary solenoid does not operate properly, there are several reasons for the malfunction. Lack of voltage supply is one of the common problems causing insufficient magnetic field formation. Voltage supply and wire connection is checked first of all during electric rotary solenoid troubleshooting.

Secondly, overheating occurs because of excessive energy supply and improper duty cycle settings. Insulation can be damaged, and service life shortened due to incorrect voltage choice and thermal control. Another reason for the malfunction can be mechanical blockage. Accumulated dust particles and debris may limit rotation of the solenoid armature.

Degradation of coil insulation and magnetic material as well as incorrect power conditions lead to the reduction of torque output. It is determined by coil resistance measurements and magnetism.

Unsteady operation, noise emission, and wear may occur due to worn out bearing and other mechanical parts.

Proper selection, testing, and maintenance prevent the malfunction of the solenoid.

How to Avoid Common Mistakes When Choosing Electric Rotary Solenoid

Mistakes in electric rotary solenoid selection can lead to the malfunction, overheating or system failure. First of all, many people neglect the torque value of rotary solenoids.

For calculating mechanical torque output, buyers need to measure mechanical torque required for the application. The second mistake is connected with wrong voltage choice or duty cycle settings.

Coils of rotary solenoids used for continuous and intermittent duties are different in design and characteristics. Consequently, inappropriate voltage or duty cycle cause overheating and shortened life of the solenoid.

Furthermore, most buyers forget about environmental conditions for rotary solenoids such as high temperatures, humid air, vibration, and dusty environment. For industrial environments, it is necessary to apply special protection.

Wrong rotation angle causes malfunctions of the rotary solenoid in the system. Before selection, buyers need to find out the precise value of rotation angle.

Last mistake is the disregard of installation dimensions and shaft requirements. In order to avoid this problem, buyers should study technical drawings before purchase.

The final point is choosing manufacturers according to their price offers only. For the correct purchase, the manufacturing capability, engineering service, and customization ability of manufacturers need to be estimated.

How to Choose an Electric Rotary Solenoid

When choosing electric rotary solenoids, it is important to pay attention to a number of electrical, mechanical, and environmental criteria. Firstly, rotation angle and torque output must be determined for further choosing of rotary solenoids. The solenoid has to have the necessary torque output for reliable actuation without being overloaded.

Next, voltage type is very important. It usually comes in DC 12V and 24V. However, voltage used must be the same as voltage supply of the system. In addition, it is important whether the application will be operated in continuous or intermittent duty mode.

Then, response time and life are important parameters of rotary solenoids in the case of automation equipment. High repeatability is required for high-speed automated systems. Long service life is necessary for industrial applications.

Environmental parameters are important for outdoor applications. For example, high temperatures, humidity, vibration, and dust are hazardous for solenoids. Special protection should be used.Installation dimensions must be compatible with equipment structure. The size of shaft, mounting structure, connector, and cable must be measured for further rotary solenoid selection.

Finally, customization is necessary in case of OEM projects. Technical information, torque curves, and samples should be asked before choosing suppliers. Engineering service and customization capability must be considered.
