Ultra-low-noise, high-stability servo-controllers and amplifiers are essential, because piezo actuators respond to even microvolt changes of the control voltage with motion.
For industrial applications, where maximum throughput is crucial, PI controllers feature digital control algorithms for dynamic linearization and reduced settling times. For dynamic high-power applications, our energy-recovery power amplifiers provide up to 2000 W of peak power with minimal energy consumption, ideal for high-frequency actuation tasks.
