Abstract
A control method for an electromagnetic actuator for the control of a valve of an engine from an abutment condition, in which an actuator body actuating the valve and disposed to move between two electromagnets is maintained in abutment against a first excited electromagnet and against the action of at least one elastic body; in order to bring the actuator body into abutment against a second electromagnet, the first electromagnet is de-excited and the second electromagnet is then excited by means of excitation parameters, which are determined as a function of the measurement of the mean value of the disturbance force acting on the valve during the stage of de-excitation of the first electromagnet.
