Chip Actuator CA0408
Miniature Linear Actuator with a force of 8 N and a stroke of 0.4 mm.
Chip Actuator CA0408
The chip actuator CA0408 is a shape memory alloy actuator from memetis that is able to generate high forces. It is designed for operating seat valves in disposable fluidic chips and cartridges, but can also be used as pin puller, for locking mechanisms, or similar.
An M2 internal thread allows mounting of a customer-specific valve plunger or threaded rod.

The memetis chip valve actuator provides a full through-hole for a custom plunger with M2 external threading.
A long plunger (> 20 mm) can be used to:
- Stabilize the vertical plunger alignment
- Fine-tune the plunger length after mounting
- monitor the plunger position using an external distance sensor (e.g. Laser, Hall-sensor, mechanical switch)

High forces
The chip valve actuator can generate 8 N of force.
Silent switching
Due to the shape memory alloy, the actuator switches silently
Customizable
Add your preferred plunged and actuate your seat valve in your disposable fluidic chip.
Combining the Chip Valve Actuator with a Multi-Well-Plate
With a width of 9 mm and the
cuboid design, the actuators can be seamlessly integrated into arrays
to be used on well-plates or microfluidic chips.
