  • Piezo Ceramic Actuators & Custom Subassemblies
    PI Ceramic piezoelectric actuators offer today's motion engineer and scientist a practical way to achieve extremely high positioning accuracy, shortest possible response times, best dynamic operation and largest forces in a wide variety of applications. Presently piezoelectric actuator based motion
  • Piezo Buzzer & Magnetic Buzzer
    A piezo buzzer generates sound because of the piezoelectric effect from the piezoelectric ceramic which drives the metallic diaphragm to vibrate. A magnetic buzzer is based on the electromagnetic principle, the metal diaphragm is pulled when input the power, and spring back without power.
  • Piezo Motors: Principle of Operation for Engineers
    How it Works. The Piezoelectric effect in piezoceramics converts electrical field to mechanical strain. Under special electrical excitation drive and ceramic geometry of Nanomotion motors, longitudinal extension and transverse bending oscillation modes are excited at close frequency proximity
  • Advances in Piezo Mechanics Aid Eye Surgery
    Piezo motion-based mechanisms provide a variety of features that are highly sought after in life-science and medical engineering applications, such sterile ceramic designs and lubricant-free drives. Ceramics are also non-magnetic, an advantage in high-energy imaging/scanning based on strong
  • Performance and Applications of Inertia Based Positioning Drives: Q-Motion
    Size matters in miniaturization and automation - smaller is usually better. Traditional electromagnetic motors have limitations when it comes to shrinking dimensions while maintaining high efficiency and accuracy of motion with minimized energy consumption. Piezo ceramic inertia motors can fill
  • How Do Ultrasonic Cleaners Work?
    An ultrasonic cleaner is a metal container that has ceramic piezo transducers attached to the side or the bottom of the tank. These transducers convert one form of energy to another. They also change size when an electrical signal excites it. When the transducer is excited it increases in size
  • Piezoelectrics in Positioning
    The piezoelectric effect is often encountered in daily life. For example, in small butane cigarette or gas grill lighters, a lever applies pressure to a piezo-electric ceramic creating an electric field strong enough to produce a spark to ignite the gas. Furthermore, alarm clocks often use
  • The Capabilities, Benefits, and Key Applications for StackiCap
    a solution designed to provide high capacitance value (CV) in a compact package while reducing the risk of piezo electric cracking. Known as StackiCap TM, this surface-mount multi-layer ceramic capacitor offers the greatest volumetric efficiency and CV per unit mass of any high-voltage X7R ceramic
