Piezoelectric actuators are devices that produce a small displacement with a high force capability when voltage is applied.
There are many applications where a piezoelectric actuator may be used, such as ultraprecise positioning and in the generation and handling of high forces or pressures in static or in dynamic situations.
Nowadays, for high speed, high precision movements in nanometer resolution, more and more piezo components are being used.
We would like to present you the recently developed equipment for the production of piezo components:
The numbers of layers on a piezo actuator are directly tied to the translation movement required. For piezo components with a high number of layers (1000 or more) specially designed machines are required, we offer these alternatives:
1. From mini stacks
This concept is to produce stacks of up to 100 layers. These “mini-stacks” are subsequently stacked and laminated together in a cavity in order to achieve the requested layer count.
Stacking mini-stack using PAL-9 machine or separate printer + separate stacker
Vision aligned edge cut
Warm laminating in the press (TPR)
2. Stacking single layers
For this technology a high layer stacker is needed (ST-series) . Individual sheets are placed in a cavity. Once the requested number of layers is reached, the cavity is transferred to a thermal press where all layers are laminated together. (Please click here for more information)
