We Fit Our Product to Your System
We have all been there. The new design is perfect with one exception. The "off the shelf" product just won't cut it. In solenoid terms, it can be for a number of reasons. The force is too low. The mounting or interface won't work. The voltage range is incorrect. Or maybe the plating or materials are insufficient for the environment. This is where your special needs demand a special product. GW Lisk makes custom solenoids to meet your specific needs.
The concept is simple. A coil of copper magnet wire is placed inside a steel housing with end iron and a steel armature. An electrical current is applied to the coil and a magnetic field is created, moving the armature to close a preset air gap. With varied geometry, that linear force can be turned into a rotational torque. That is where the simple ends and the customization begins.
