FPA-2000E Piezoelectric Actuator

FPA-2000E | Piezoelectric Actuator

Description

DSM's FPA-2000E is a flexure-based piezoelectric actuator ideal for both dynamic and static applications where precise and accurate positioning is required. The FPA-2000E is available as a standard product with low voltage (150V) piezo material. The actuator incorporates a preload for bi-directional motion and a titanium or stainless steel amplification mechanism. The mechanism's design enables relatively high displacement in a low-profile package. The displacement of the mechanism is transmitted through two parallel output plates with tapped attachment holes. Custom mounting conditions can be integrated into the design.
