Notes:

This flap actuator can reach a speed up to 25Hz, but for always-on applications we recommended not to exceed 10Hz.
For smooth organic motions, check out our DriveCell PWM Arduino library.
The adhesive used on the backside is 3M467. It’s cover can be peeled off using a pair of tweezers. Always clean the surface before sticking the actuator.
The FlatFlap is capable of lifting weights below 2 grams when operated with an on-off approach. Increasing the frequency to resonate the mass, specifically within the range of 30-3Hz, enhances its lifting-force/vibrating speed.
The aluminum reflecting flap is not polished and may include some scratches.
The box will include the FlatFlap, Blue/Pink Color-Changing Sticker and a set of two M1.2 screws.
To mount the Blue/Pink Color-Changing Sticker, peel off its cover-back with tweezers and make sure that the flap's surface is clean.
FlatFlap was previously known as the Flap Actuator.
This electronics kit is ROHS Compliant & follows IPC-A-600 II standard.
Please note that the FlatFlap is intended to be used as a DIY maker kit. For commercial purposes, please get in touch.
