High Performance Piezo Flexure Scanners
An increasing range of applications – such as image sensor interpolation or stabilization- require small to medium range sample positioning at high bandwidth / frequency. Due to our extensive engineering knowledge, we are capable to satisfy many of these requirements based on our piezo flexure technology: We put special focus to miniature designs with superior stiffness, which we develop by rapid prototyping using our finite element method( FEM) and electron-discharge milling( EDM) equipment.
Choices involve:
• one to three degrees of freedom
• linear, goniometric, or rotational actuation
• custom-tailored physical dimensions, stroke, payload
• advanced sensors and electronics
• customized payload
• simulated & verified dynamic performance
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• highly dynamic image interpolation for image sensors( typ. near to mid IR)
• image stabilization, widely applied from VIS to IR spectral range
