FPA-100E Piezoelectric Actuator
Description
DSM's FPA-100E is a flexure-based piezoelectric actuator ideal for both dynamic and static applications where precise and accurate positioning is required. The FPA-100E is mechanically preloaded to ensure bi-directional operation, providing increased resilience to mechanical loads when compared to non-preloaded actuators. The kinematic mechanism provides high-stroke operation in an exceptionally small package.
The FPA-100E's compact design is well-suited to many applications and comes standard in a durable, non-corrosive stainless steel design pre-tapped with threaded mounting holes to match a customer's requirements.
