Precision Positioning via Piezo Stacks
Piezo stacks are widely used for precision positioning tasks. A component can be moved with sub-micron accuracy from one position to another. Most piezo-mechanical systems for this purpose show a special trait, nearly no alteration of a system's internal force balance occurs during piezo action. The electrical behavior of piezo-actuators is like that of a capacitor. Precision positioning is mostly done by voltage control of piezo stacks.
Points to keep in mind in positioning applications:
- Position feedback is needed
- Quality of electronics is reflected in mechanical performance
- Accuracy is limited by attached mechanical transfer mechanisms
- Tilting of end faces can occur
- Max actuator strokes are only possible under constant load
