Picoactuator® Z piezo actuator; 1 µm travel range (open loop); 5 mm × 5 mm × 12.5 mm (A × B × L); bare wire strands; 0.1 m cable length
P-405 Picoactuator®
Multi-axis Actuators with Highly Linear Displacement
- Lead-free, crystalline actuator material
- High dynamics
- Ideal for operation without position control
- Low electrical power consumption
- Minimal length tolerances
Stack actuator
Bipolar operating voltage up to ±500 V. Nearly hysteresis-free motion (< 0.2 %). No creep. Picoactuators®, as longitudinal and shear actuators, are configurable up to heights of 20 mm and travel ranges of 1 µm.
Technology
Picoactuator® longitudinal and shear actuators consist of a crystalline piezoelectric material. The specific displacement for shear actuators is ±0.02 % of the actuators length and ±0.01 % for longitudinal piezo actuators. This value is ten times lower when compared to piezo actuators made of lead zirconate titanate (PZT). The motion is highly linear and almost hysteresis-free.

At PI, technical data is specified at 22 ±3 °C. Unless otherwise stated, the values are for unloaded conditions. Some properties are interdependent. The designation "typ." indicates a statistical average for a property; it does not indicate a guaranteed value for every product supplied. During the final inspection of a product, only selected properties are analyzed, not all. Please note that some product characteristics may deteriorate with increasing operating time.
