Description
Piezo-Actuators are principally solid-state bodies, which deform when they are charged electrically. There is no stiction or friction involved, so that the resolution of displacements is only limited by the noise of the charge-supplying electronics.
EDM-cut flexures used for the levering mechanisms and for guidance are also free of stiction and friction, so that the resolution of the piezo-drives can directly be translated to the positioning tasks.
MPa Piezo Stacks exhibit the latest industry standard performance
- Higher Displacements
- Longer Lifetimes
- Tighter Tolerances
- MPa stacks deliver strain of up to 2%!
The consequently laminated structures and monolithic sintering guarantee best possible dimensional tolerances and straightness of motion. Micro-cracks and pillow-effect are excluded by μm- precise drawn back electrodes in combination with an elastic isolation.
MPO Piezo Stacks have the following properties:
- 2% Strain
- > 10^10 Cycles
- RH, T, DC proof
