[Application Note] Tuning a Piezomotor DMC-30019 and LEGS Piezoelectric Motor for High Resolution Motion Control

 Download Application Note     

   When dealing with high resolution applications where positioning down to the nanometer level is required, choosing the right hardware is critical. For systems such as these, a piezoelectric motor is often selected over a conventional electromagnetic motor. Piezoelectric motors have excellent positioning accuracy, high speed capabilities, and minimal electromagnetic interference. This makes them an excellent candidate for applications where high precision and speed is required over small distances, as well as for applications in sensitive environments.
