Precision linear actuators explained in new brochure

PI (Physik Instrumente)visit website

 

PI (Physik Instrumente) is publishing a new brochure for its Precision Linear Actuators. This presents a variety of sub-micron to sub-nanometre precise, compact actuators featuring novel ceramic piezo motors as well as classical motors.

Systems range from pen-tip-sized ceramic actuators for high-volume optics and medical applications, to high-force, non-magnetic ceramic actuators for ultra-precision vacuum applications.

High-speed ultrasonic actuators provide velocity to 800mm/s and accelerations to 20g, while flexure actuators respond to control input in as little as a few 100us to operate fast pumps or position optics in high-speed focusing or alignment applications.

In addition to the piezo ceramic motors and actuators, a number of ball screw actuators with servo and stepper motors are also available; they provide resolution in the 0.1um range and forces to 400N.

Non-magnetic and vacuum-compatible versions are offered throughout the product range. These are designed for applications in fields such as:

  • Aerospace and astronomy
  • Semiconductor metrology
  • Medical design
  • Ultra-precision machining
  • Test and measurement
  • Photonics, optics and microscopy
  • Biotechnology/life sciences
  • Precision motion control
