EEDs are single shot devices which rapidly convert small electric signals into useful mechanical work output. Nobel Energetics range of EEDs are well known in the Defence, Safety and Security markets as METRON(TM) Actuators.
They are highly reliable, compact single shot devices which can push, pull, cut or shear with a power to weight ratio in excess of 10,000:1. They operate within milliseconds of receiving the appropriate electrical impulse. The pyrotechnic reaction is fully contained within the metal body of the device but the internal pressure generated drives a piston to produce the desired mechanical effect.
Their ability to operate from small electrical impulses, their compact size,high reliability and good environmental resistance make METRON(TM) Actuators ideal for remote controlled applications such as
