PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. Piezo Ratchet Drive Vacuum PiezoMike N-470.V/U

Linear actuator with PIShift piezo motors Linear screw-type actuator with PIShift piezo inertia drive for high-resolution and stable positioning. Open-loop operation in full-step mode. PIShift piezo motors Compact, inexpensive inertia drive (stick-slip). At rest, the drive is self-locking, requires no current, and does not generate any heat. It holds the position with maximum force. Alignment of mechanical and optomechanical components Stable alignment of optical paths. Long-term positioning stability: High stability at target position, reliable startup even after longer downtimes. High holding force and resolution by combining piezo actuators with mechanical thread translation. Vacuum-compatible to 10-9 hPa.
