I need to make a test rig for a device to push and pull a lever at a given force of around 10-50 Newtons, through a distance of about 30mm. It will need to push the lever for a given time and force, then pull for a given time and force.
As this is a test rig I require it to be push and pull with a constant force that is controllable and repeatable.
I was thinking of a solenoid but am not sure if the force can be controlled accurately.
Does anyone have any suggestions how best to go about this.
