Piezo Cylinder Applications

 

Typical applications for piezo cylinders (tubes) include fiber optics, scanning electron microscopes, actuators, hydrophones and sensors. APC International has the capability to be both your standard cylinder supplier and your custom cylinder design partner. Our stock cylinders are made of Type II ceramic, although cylinders can be made out of APC International's other materials should the need arise. In addition, shapes related to cylinders - such as curved plates - can also be accommodated.
