ABSTRACT:
A linear actuator for positioning a print assembly parallel to a line on which characters are being printed is disclosed. The linear actuator includes a three-sided open structure magnetic circuit fabricated from rectangular pieces of slab magnets positioned about a central return path. The print assembly is seated on the open side of said linear actuator. Cooling for the actuator is achieved by pulling air in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of said print assembly.
