Outstanding lifetime due to PICMA
The PICMA® piezo actuators are all-ceramic insulated. This protects them against humidity and failure resulting from an increase in leakage current. PICMA® actuators offer an up to ten times longer lifetime than conventional polymer-insulated actuators. 100 billion cycles without a single failure are proven.
High guide accuracy due to zero-play flexure guides
Flexure guides are free of maintenance, friction, and wear, and do not require lubrication. Their stiffness allows high load capacity and they are insensitive to shock and vibration. They work in a wide temperature range.
High dynamics multi-axis operation due to parallel kinematics
In a parallel-kinematic multi-axis system, all actuators act on a common platform. The minimum mass inertia and the identical design of all axes allow fast, dynamic, and nevertheless precision motion.

* S-330.xSB and S-330.xSH in conjunction with digital controllers
** At a 100 % tip/tilt angle; S-330.xSB and S-330.xSH in conjunction with digital controllers
The system resolution is only limited by the noise from the amplifier and the measurement technology because PI piezo nanopositioning systems function without friction.
The specifications for model S-330.xSB apply only when used with a E-727 controller (with the appropriate adapter).
Models without sensor are available on request.
At PI, technical data is specified at 22 ±3 °C. Unless otherwise stated, the values are for unloaded conditions. Some properties are interdependent. The designation "typ." indicates a statistical average for a property; it does not indicate a guaranteed value for every product supplied. During the final inspection of a product, only selected properties are analyzed, not all. Please note that some product characteristics may deteriorate with increasing operating time.
