I'm currently in the process of redesigning the solenoids for a tattoo machine company. I was wondering if anybody was aware of a formula to find the amount of force that the solenoid would draw the armature. I can figure out just about every variable that I think I'd need: flux density, air gap length etc. I just need some way to relate that to the amount of force it would create.
Thanks everyone.
