P-010.xxH · P-016.xxH · P-025.xxH PICA™-Thru Piezoelectric Stack Translator with Aperture (HVPZT)

PICA™-Thru translators are hollow Piezoelectric stack actuators, offered in a large variety of standard shapes and sizes with additional custom designs to meet all customer requirements. They combine the advantage of a clear aperture with the strength and force generation of stack actuators. These tubular devices are high-resolution linear actuators for static and dynamic applications.

Ultra-High Reliability, High Displacement, Low Power Requirements
PICA™ Piezoelectric translators are specifically designed for high-duty-cycle applications. With our extensive applications knowledge, gained over several decades, we know how to build performance that does not come at the price of reliability. All materials used are specifically matched for robustness and lifetime. Endurance tests on PICA™ actuators prove consistent performance, even after billions (1,000,000,000) of cycles. The combination of high displacement and low electrical capacitance provides for excellent dynamic behavior with reduced driving-power requirements.

Flexibility: PI Cerami's Strength
All manufacturing processes at PI Ceramic are set up for flexibility. Should our standard actuators not fit your application, let us provide you with a custom design. Our engineers will work with you to find the optimum solution at a very attractive price, even for small quantities.

Application Examples:
Optics, Image stabilization, Laser tuning, Laser treatment, Precision mechanics, Confocal microscopy, Micropositioning, etc.
