Zubax EPM is an electro-permanent magnet designed for aerospace and robotic applications. It combines the advantages of electro- and permanent magnets by being able to switch between the on-state and off-state on demand (like an electromagnet); while consuming zero power in either state (like a permanent magnet). The device supports the following communication interfaces: 

  • Cyphal/CAN FD control with diagnostic telemetry;
  • RCPWM control input;
  • voltage level control input;

More info is available at the product home page.
