Piezo Linear Drives
 |
The compact Nexact piezo stepping drives from Physik Instrumente (PI) push forward into a new performance class for linear drives: with forces of 10 N, velocities of more than 10 mm/s, and at resolutions of a few nanometers they replace the typical stepper or DC servomotors in applications that depend on the combination of force and resolution on large travel ranges. The E-862 driver electronics is the ideal control for the drives when operated in open-loop or when used with an external positioning and velocity control. By using an analog input signal, the driver can be connected with external motion controllers or it can be controlled directly by using a joystick.
The piezo stepping drives are direct linear drives and are therefore not subject to precision losses due to a conversion of rotational to linear motion. The position is locked when not in operation, the drive does not need to have power supplied and does not heat up.
