Solenoids

indEAS has a broad product range in the field of solenoids. Our portfolio covers a wide variety of magnet types designed for both standard and highly specialized applications. Rotary solenoids convert linear movement into defined rotary motion, making them ideal for systems like track switches, sorting units, or shutter systems. Valve solenoids use a plunger movement triggered by coil excitation to operate valves, commonly found in pneumatic, dosing, or locking systems.

Open frame solenoids are compact, cost-effective units for simple linear motion tasks, frequently used in locking mechanisms. Long-life solenoids are specially designed for durability, ideal for high-cycle applications such as clamping or latching systems. Tubular solenoids provide both push and pull motion within a cylindrical housing and are suited for actuating couplings, air flaps, or locks. Holding magnets are used in applications requiring long duty cycles and high holding force, such as retaining devices, robotic grippers, or tool fixtures.

The range also includes custom-designed special solenoids and actuators, engineered to meet unique customer requirements. Classic linear solenoids and reversing solenoids—available in monostable or bistable configurations—provide controlled motion in applications such as safety interlocks or parking brakes. EX-rated solenoids are tailored for use in explosive environments. Open-Frame solenoids, with their reinforced frame structure, serve reliably in lock and clamp systems. Double-bearing solenoids offer increased durability and precision for demanding applications like clamping, weighing, or interlocking systems. Finally, indEAS provides specialized solenoids for use in safety-critical areas, including access control and machine guarding.

Long-life Solenoids

When the coil is energized, the plunger performs a linear stroke movement. The maximum possible stroke movement depends on the size of the magnet and the shape of the plunger.

indEAS magnets are robust direct current (DC) magnets.
They are suitable for both pulling and pushing movements. The built-in precision coils, combined with the design, provide an optimum level of performance.

A special version includes the rotary or positioning magnets, in which linear motion is converted into rotary motion.

When selecting a magnet, the entire system and application must be considered in detail. To choose the most suitable magnet from the extensive standard range, mechanical parameters (force, stroke, service life, etc.), the electrical interface, and other factors (e.g., protection class or lateral forces) are taken into account. This ensures that the properly dimensioned magnet meets all application requirements safely and with sufficient safety margins under all operating conditions.

The individual tables list the standard versions for different duty cycles. The installation position of the magnet is optional; however, the armature weight may need to be considered. When transferring force, lateral (i.e., non-axial) forces should be kept as low as possible or ideally avoided. Thanks to the modular system of indEAS linear solenoids, custom adaptations to customer applications can often be achieved.
