Multilayer Stack Type Actuators

A stack type actuator or piezo actuator from piezosystem jena is based on multilayer ceramics. A special epoxy sealing guarantees the most flexible, longest lifetime protection available on the market. This technique has been proven in the field for many years by our extensive experience.
Depending on the size of the ceramic stacks, these piezo actuators can move masses in the kNs. The resolution is only limited by the signal noise.
The ability to generate a large force and be subjected to high mass loads with high resolutions makes our piezoelectric stack actuators particularly useful for machine tools and dynamic scanning systems.

Those mutilayer piezo actuators have been used successfully in applications in the fields of nanopositioning, metrology, rapid valve actuation, mirror moving and tilting, fiber stretching, generating oscillations, and vibration damping.
As an option, these piezo stack actuators are all available with a strain gage feedback sensor. There is also a vacuum or cryogenic version as well.
