P-131 PIRest Actuators
Active Shims with Nanometer Resolution and Long-Term Stability
- Long-term stability without permanent power supply
- Easy readjustment of machines at inaccessible locations
- Avoids time-consuming manual adjusting processes
- Nanometer resolution and micrometer displacement
- Load capacity up to 4000 N per actuator
- Temperature sensor
Application fields
- Set-and-forget applications
- Adaptive mechanics
- Drift compensation
- Alignment of optical components
- Precision mechanics
- Static precision positioning
- Metrology / interferometry
Long-term stable positioning without permanent power supply
Once displaced, actuators with PIRest technology hold their position stable without permanent control voltage. Nanometer precision, maintenance-friendly and inexpensive adjustments are possible even at inaccessible locations.
High user-friendliness due to automatic configuration
Important operating parameters are stored on the mechanic's ID chip and are read out automatically when the electronics are switched on.
