P-286 P-288 P-289 Piezo Disk Translators

• Displacement to 200 µm
• Sub-nm Resolution
• Low Cost
• Flat Design
• For Small Forces

Disk Translators belong to the group of bimorph piezo actuators (see "Tutorial: Piezoelectrics in Positioning" section for description of design principle). P-286 to P-289 translators are high resolution actuators for static and dynamic applications providing fast response and sub-nanometer resolution.

Compared to stack translators, they provide for a relatively large travel range (up to 200 µm) in an extremely small package. P-286 can be attached to a flat surface with the outer ring. The translator expands via the central tapped connector. P-288 and P-289 are double disk constructions where the expansion occurs between the two facing tapped connectors.

Application examples:
Static and dynamic positioning, pneumatic valves, patch clamping, etc. (click here for details).
