Electromechanical valve drive

The electromechanical valve actuator comprises an electromagnet (72, 73, 74); a receptacle (42, 44) for an electromagnet; and a potting material (50) on which the electromagnet (72, 73, 74) with the receptacle (42, 44) for connecting an electromagnet. The apparatus for the casting of electromechanical valve actuators has a mold (110) having a cavity, a solenoid assembly (60) in a housing (42, 44) to take for an electromagnet; and at least one potting adapter (134) to form a casting gap between the receptacle (42, 44) for the electromagnet and the electromagnet (72, 73, 74).
