A new type of magnetostrictive actuator is designed based on Fe-Ga magnetostrictive material. The output characteristic of the magnetostrictive actuator is analyzed by using the magnetization model, the finite element software and the modal analysis theory. It is found that when the two driving coils of the actuator are connected to opposite current,the radial resonance frequency is 1 000 Hz, and the output displacements in radial and axial directions are 52 m and 1.7 m, respectively. When the same direction current is applied to the two driving coils of the magnetostrictive actuator, the axial resonance frequency is 7 808 Hz, and the displacement at the resonant frequency is 14 m. The output characteristic of the magnetostrictive actuator was studied by experiments, and the experimental result was in agreement with the simulation results. It is proved that the developed actuator is of practical value.
