P-080 tubular piezo stack

Share this on social media:

PI (Physik Instrumente) has introduced the P-080 tubular piezo stack, the newest member of the PICMA line of piezo actuators. Piezo actuators are based on solid-state motion effects and are used in applications that require attributes such as high speed, high force, and virtually unlimited resolution.

Conventional, polymer-insulated piezo actuators are sensitive to environmental conditions, especially humidity and temperature. Based on a patented, ceramic-encapsulation process developed by PI’s piezo division, PI Ceramic, PICMA multilayer piezo stack actuators are durable and reliable. PI’s actuators are a manufactured in a cofiring process as monolithic blocks that can be combined to achieve longer displacement range.
