Abstract
To simplify the design of a rotary actuator, in particular for an “R”-type waveguide switch, having a permanently magnetized rotor and a plurality of stator windings surrounding the rotor in a rim-like fashion, for generating magnetic fields which place the rotor in one of a first plurality of positions, it is proposed to finish the actuator with elements for exerting a corrective torque on the rotor, the elements placing the rotor, in the currentless state of the stator windings, in a target position of a second plurality of positions, each position of the first plurality having assigned to it a target position.
