Abstract
A method for making a motion control feature for an actuator device of a type that has a moveable component coupled to an opposing fixed component for out-of-plane rotational movement relative thereto includes forming first and second flaps respectively extending from the moveable and fixed components and toward the opposing component and operable to effect one or more of damping movement of the moveable component relative to the fixed component and/or restraining movement of the moveable component relative to the fixed component in a direction substantially perpendicular to the actuator device.
