Piezoelectric motors have long been used for ultra-precise expensive motion solutions in niche industries but the latest innovations in piezo technology enable these devices to be suitable for mainstream motion solutions.

Discover what the piezo-electric effect is and how it can be harnessed to design a new class of rotary and linear motion products. Learn how Piezo motors are driven and how they can be controlled with PWM and serial commands. Gain an understanding of how Piezoelectric motors compare to traditional dc and stepper motor solutions and what advantages and opportunities they present for designers and engineers of OEM equipment and instruments.

See examples of how Piezoelectric motors can be applied to solve motion challenges in a range of applications and industries.

Key Takeaways:

  •    –   What a Piezo motor is and how it works
  •    –   How a Piezo motor compares and contrasts with conventional dc and stepper motors
  •    –   Some of the key benefits / advantages of Piezomotor technology
  •    –   Examples of applications for Piezomotors utilizing the benefits
