            Abstract : 
Summary form only given. In reporting the developments of various kinds of magnetic actuators with metal magnets, we have proposed a small (cm-size) magnetic actuator swimming toward the magnetic field. In this paper, an improved actuator is proposed and its measured velocity characteristics are shown.
