An actuator assembly includes a housing with a motor compartment, a gear compartment, a bulkhead separating the motor compartment from the gear compartment, and an aperture through the bulkhead. The actuator assembly also includes a motor assembly in the motor compartment defining a space radially between the motor assembly and the gear motor compartment. A high thermal conductivity material is disposed within the space to transfer heat from the motor assembly to the housing. The bulkhead includes one of a groove and a rib surrounding the aperture on the side of the bulkhead facing the motor compartment and the motor assembly includes the other of the groove and the rib such that the rib fits within the groove to prevent the high thermal conductivity material from migrating radially inward of the groove and the rib when the high thermal conductivity material is injected into the space.

A self-cleaning soldering thimble assembly includes a thimble and a scraper disposed therein. The scraper is supported by two support rods that extend through the bottom of the thimble. The thimble slides along the support rods. When the thimble is dipped into a solder pot to refill the thimble with solder, the support rods abut the bottom of the solder pot, and the thimble continues to slide down the support rods causing the scraper to scrape away dross on the thimble.
