ABSTRACT:
A wire matrix print head includes a plurality of axially movable print wires, each having an associated electromagnetic actuator comprising an actuating armature and an electromagnet. An E-shaped, laminated pole piece is utilized to obtain extremely high speed operation. The center arm of the E-shaped pole piece includes a portion of reduced width to provide space for the energizing coil, while the inner arm has full width to maximize the actuating force. The armature is pivoted about a point inward of the outer edge of the pole piece and is returned to its standby position by an O-ring prior to the print wire reaching the standby position. The print head includes a print wire guide assembly which imparts a constant radius curvature to each print wire.
