Characteristics:

• motion in x- and y-axes up to 20µm
• high resonant frequency
• high stiffness
• minimum z-motion
• free central hole

 
Applications:

• scanning systems with highest z-axis stiffness and resonant frequency
• ray/beam deflection
• surface scanning

The PXY 15 CDT piezo positioners were developed especially for optical scanning applications. These systems are optimized for a very high resonant frequency and an excellent high stiffness in all axes. Originally designed for mounting optical lenses, the stage is now available in different versions for fast and precise movement of mechanical parts. The internal preload and the design without mechanical transmission make this actuator well suited for high frequency applications up to the kilohertz range.
