In this paper, various structures of linear motion actuators are described. These structures have been studied in order to drive the valves of a car motor. According to general specifications, a description of the design and sizing of variable reluctance or permanent magnet devices is given. The main qualities of each structure are enhanced.

Mots clés: Linear motion actuator; variable reluctance; permanent magnet; valves.; valves
