Versatile solutions for smart motion control
Piezo bending actuators are predestined for smart applications requiring movement, positioning, or precise displacement. With their high dynamics, rapid response time, and minimal energy consumption, they are ideal for demanding fields such as medical technology, automation, and microfluidics. Their compact design saves space, while their dual functionality as both sensor and actuator opens up new possibilities for system integration. Thanks to their long service life with billions of switching cycles, they offer a reliable solution for continuous operations where downtime is not an option.
High performance piezoceramic bending actuators for maximum precision
Our Piezo bending actuators consist of two piezoceramic layers (bimorph or trimorph) and can be customized as monomorphic or multimorphic depending on the application. These actuators operate exclusively in the direction of polarization, resulting in a continuous “refresh” with each movement—ensuring consistent force and deflection throughout their lifetime. A special protective coating allows use under extreme climatic conditions. They enable deflections of several millimeters, forces of several Newtons, and extremely short response times. Their performance is proportional to the applied voltage, and they operate silently and without heat generation—making them ideal for precise, energy-efficient control tasks.
