Piezo Element

Shapes and Sizes



Using CNC technology APC International is able to manufacture piezoelectric ceramic elements in a wide range of shapes and sizes. APC International most frequently manufactures piezoelectric discs, rings, plates, and cylinders. While these are the most common shapes manufactured by our machine shop, we also have a great deal of experience manufacturing hemispheres, trapezoids, concave lenses, and other customer specified shapes.
