PI (Physik Instrumente), a global leader in precision motion control and nanopositioning systems, released a new brochure introducing PI as a long-term OEM partner for cutting-edge solutions in ...

As we continue to carry around items that insist on requiring electricity to work, portable—even wearable—energy-generating systems are looking very attractive. A group of researchers has recently ...

Thermal stability of piezoceramics is better than that of most other materials. Actuators and positioning systems consist of a combination of piezoceramics and other materials and their overall ...

Electromagnetic motors and drivers are have been optimized for more than 100 years. They can be found applications from toys to aerospace systems. With all their advantages, there are limitations such ...

Japan's Kyocera Corporation has combined a piezoelectric actuator with a special resin film to produce a proprietary, piezo film speaker that is considerably thinner and lighter than conventional ...

To increase the accessibility of piezoelectric transducers and actuators for OEM designers, manufacturers may package these devices inside a protective arrangement of flexures. This approach offers a ...

Throughout the surgical process, the surgeon must have access to a real-time assessment of blood vessels to make evaluations relative to the flow of blood. Piezo transducers are at the heart of ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is utilized for surface measurements with atomic-level resolution — dimensions that are much beyond the highest resolution of optical microscopes. AFM is known to be a ...

Delicate perforation of the membranes and easy operation are essential for micromanipulation. With Prime Tech's knowledge and well established experience in microinjection, and their long-standing ...
