Piezo Nano Positioning
PICA Stack piezo ceramic
actuators are offered in a large
variety of standard shapes and
sizes with additional custom
designs to suit any application.
Ultra-High Reliability, High
Displacement, Low Power
Requirements
PICA piezo actuators are
specifically designed for high-
duty-cycle applications. With
our extensive applications
knowledge, gained over sever-
al decades, we know how to
build performance that does
not come at the price of relia-
bility. All materials used are
specifically matched for ro -
bust ness and lifetime.
Endurance tests on PICA
actuators prove consistent per-
formance, even after billions
(1,000,000,000 ) of cycles. The
combination of high displace-
ment and low electrical capaci-
tance provides for excellent
dynamic behavior with re -
duced driving power require-
ments.
Flexibility / Short Leadtimes
All manufacturing processes at
PI Ceramic are set up for flexi-
bility. Should our standard
actuators not fit your appli ca-
tion, 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. Some of our custom
capabilities are listed below:
L52159 Custom Materials
L52159 Custom Voltage Ranges
L52159 Custom Geometries
(Circular, Rectangular, Tri -
angular, Layer Thickness ...)
L52159 Custom Load / Force
Ranges
L52159 Custom Flat or Spherical
Endplates (Alumina, Glass,
Sapphire, ...)
L52159 Extra-Tight Length
Tolerances
L52159 Integrated Piezoelectric
Sensor Discs
L52159 Special High / Low
Temperature Versions
L52159 Vacuum Compatible
Versions
Because all piezoelectric mate-
rials used in PICA actuators
are manufactured at PI Cera -
mic, leadtimes are short and
quality is outstanding. All stan-
dard and custom actuators are
delivered with performance
test sheets.
Piezo Drivers, Controllers &
High-Voltage Amplifiers
High-resolution amplifiers and
servo-control electronics, both
digital and analog, are descri -
bed in the Piezo Drivers / Servo
Controllers (see p. 2-99 ff ) sec-
tion.
PICA Stack piezo actuators
are delivered with metal end-
caps for improved robustness
and reliability.
For preloaded versions with
steel casings (see p. 1-78,
p. 1-80).
