Piezo-flexure actuators replace leadscrews

The P-601 series piezo flexure actuators provide travel ranges in excess of 1,000 µm, said to be 10 times the performance of standard piezo-stack actuators. Features include closed-loop control and resolution better than 1 Nm.

Stiff construction enables rise times shorter than 1 ms. The actuators require no lubricants, and optional vacuum and nonmagnetic versions are available. (Contact David Rego for pricing—available now.)
