Piezo Motors and Electronics

---

Super Technologies offers Piezo Motors and Electronics from Cedrat Technologies, France, which manufactures mechatronics products including piezoelectric and magnetic actuators, motors, mechanisms, transducers and sensors with corresponding drivers and controllers. Stepping Piezoelectric Actuators (SPA) are new long-stroke linear or rotating piezoelectric motors for micro/nano positioning applications benefiting from the APA® heritage. They operate by accumulation of small steps. The motion can be either linear (LSPA motors) or rotary (RSPA motors). The motors can be supplied with the dedicated controller SPC45 or with standard Linear Amplifiers CA45 or LA75.

Characteristics and benefits:

• High speeds up to 70 mm/s help reduce cycle times and gain productivity
• Power can be removed when the motor is positioned
• Resistance to external forces (shock, vibrations)
• Ideal for embedded applications
• Strong miniaturisation possibilities
• Non magnetic, MRI compatible and does not generate magnetic fields
• High resolution within the nanometre range if required
• Life time greater than 106 cycles
• Severe environment compatibility (vacuum, cryogenic, clean environment)
• Few parts – cost-effective solution for series.

SPA piezo motors are targeting biotechnology, medical devices, aerospace, defence, microscopy, laboratory automation, materials characterization, digital imaging, recreational equipment, IC manufacturing and photonics. Piezo motors provide the smallest size, greatest efficiency, highest precision when applied in these areas. Super Technologies is leading system integration and product distribution organisation, engaged in providing cutting edge technology solutions.
