Precision Motion Control with Ultrasonic Piezo Motors
Conventional positioning systems often convert the rotary motion of a motor into linear motion using a screw drive. PILine® Ultrasonic positioning systems are based on a special ceramic direct drive free of backlash and play with enhances response time and positioning accuracy. High-resolution positioning and fast step-and-settle performance are other features.
