STOCK SHEAR MODE PARTS

FOUR STANDARD PLATES AVAILABLE     

  

 

  

APC International is pleased to offer shear mode piezo plates.  Shear mode plates are poled along the standard 1 axis.  Following poling, APC's skilled staff remove our standard fired-on silver electrodes and re-electrode the piezoelectric ceramic along the 3 axis using an epoxy silver or a sputtered electrode.

 

APC offers four standard sheer mode plates available for quick delivery: 

  • 15mm x 15mm x 1mm - APC 850 
  • 15mm x 15mm x 1mm - APC 850 w/ wrap-around electrode
  • 15mm x 15mm x 1mm - APC 840 
  • 15mm x 15mm x 1mm - APC 840 w/ wrap-around electrode

 

In addition to our standard plates, APC can also custom manufacture shear mode piezo plates specific for your application.

 

Consider using APC shear mode plates in your next piezo application requiring greater sensitivity or greater displacement.
