Equipment using the piezoelectric effect of PZT based ceramic elements can achieve unlimited high resolution positioning. piezosystem jena is one of the world leading companies in this technology. An electric field is applied to the ceramic by controlling analog voltage signals.
This results in a change in length of the bi-polar elements depending on the signal strength. piezosystem jena makes use of this effect for the design of positioning equipment with nearly unlimited high resolution. The increased in the length of the PZT is quite small.
Therefore piezosystem jena employs sophisticated flexure hinge designs in order to enlarge the motion up to the mm range. The unique nano-positioning elements of piezosystem jena guarantee the highest resolution in the sub-nm range even when the total travel range is in mm.
We use FEA tools in our development so that our positioning elements reach a very high stiffness. This is the basis for positioning equipment able to work at high speeds as well as under high pressure forces. Our actuators are guaranteed a long lifetime thanks to the protective flexible multilayer ceramic insulation even under high dynamic applications.
More than 15 years of experience using the actautors with this special protective insulation make our elements your first choice in high precision nano-positioning equipment.
