In this paper we give a short introduction to elements with shape memory effect and discuss their potential in automotive applications. In the second part of the paper we present a prototype of a new controller for NiTinol wires. The presented mechanism is suitable for applications in various fields, for example automotive industry and medical industry. It is necessary to control the stroke of shape memory alloy actuator in order to set the desired proprieties. The NiTi-Controller is a device designed to control the contraction-elongation of shape memory alloy wires when they are loading a weight. Normally the lengths of the wires used are between 75 and 125 cm, and the maximum contraction-elongation is 5% of its original length. To protect and control the elongation of the wire we use a microcontroller. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
