The novel N-310 NEXACT® PiezoWalk® Linear Actuator with linear motor are ultra-compact precision drives featuring travel ranges of 20 mm and push/pull forces to 10 N. With their high resolution, NEXACT® piezo stepper linear motors are ideal for high-precision positioning over long travel ranges. The N-310 linear actuator can be operated in open-loop and closed-loop mode (with the addition of an external position sensor). A variety of NEXACT® controllers facilitates the integration into micro- or nanopositioning applications.
Advantages of PiezoWalk® Piezo Linear Motor Actuators
NEXLINE® and NEXACT® linear actuators offer several advantages over traditional drive technologies:
- Resolution in the picometer range
- Compact dimensions
- High drive forces from ten newtons (NEXACT®) up to several hundred newtons (NEXLINE®)
- High dynamic performance with sub-microsecond response
- Self-locking when powered down; no holding current
- Zero backlash, no wear or maintenance, no mechanical components like gears or leadscrews.
- Non-Magnetic and Vacuum-Compatible Operating Principle
