Abstract

Actuators are one of the key components contained in any industrial system. Therefore, well describes and simple briefly about the design, actuators for neonatal baby's chest, movement simulator using actuator are integrated into baby chest. The current implementation of the manikin is huge and the accuracy of movement is far from the real experiences. For that, need actuators which fit into the very small space inside the body. These actuators need to generate the chest movements. For this chest, power consumption, size and so on is major issues. The servo motor is used to "move" in a robot chest. Making the right choice for the actuator and a mechanism that allow the movement required is not a straightforward task. This is because premature baby's are weak in motion. Usually premature baby not doing more movement because they are born too early means that not matured like a normal baby. Micro servo are chosen because of its smaller size compared to the stepper motor in the market. Besides through investigation of the requirement can be theoretically deduced, a good amount of practical experience in mechanical design is needed to bring the task to a good end.
