P-802.00, P-802.10, P-804.10 Open Loop Piezo Translators
P-802 and P-804 Piezo Translators are high resolution linear actuators for static and dynamic applications. They provide sub-millisecond response and sub-nanometer resolu-tion.
- Displacement to 15 µm
- Pushing Forces to 3000 N
- Sub-msec Response
- Sub-nm Resolution
The translators consist of a high reliability multilayer Piezo ceramics block operating in a voltage range of 0 to 100 V. The stack is covered by epoxy insulation and heat shrinking tube for protection and strain relief of the wire leads.
Due to their high resonant frequency, they are ideal for dynamic operation with small loads. For dynamic operation with larger loads an external preload is recommended. PI offers a variety of preloaded translators for applications with larger tensile forces.
Care must be taken during mounting (e.g. by epoxy) and operation because the translators are not protected by a case and preload (click here for mounting guidelines).
Application examples:
Static and dynamic positioning, fiber aligning, laser tuning, patch clamping, etc. (click here for details).Accessories:
Extension cables & connectors.
