FPA-80E Mini Flextensional Piezoelectric Actuator
 Description
DSM's FPA-80E Mini is a flexure-based piezoelectric actuator ideal for both dynamic and static applications where precise and accurate positioning is required. The FPA-80E Mini is mechanically preloaded to ensure bidirectional 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-80E Mini’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.
