These voice coil actuators uses frictionless bearings – either flexures for short travel, or air bearings for extremely straight guiding. Both drive and guiding systems are wear free and clean room compatible.

Recirculating ball screw actuators (RBS) have lower friction and can provide higher velocity than lead screw actuators. Ball screws replace sliding friction with rolling friction. Lower friction also means less heat generation when operated at high duty cycles and high velocities. On the other hand, reduced friction also means lower holding forces of the linear actuator when powered off.

PI currently offers several  types of long travel piezo linear motors and several types of short travel actuators such as flexure actuators, stack actuators, and bender actuators. The drive principle in piezo ceramic motors / actuators is intrinsically nonmagnetic and vacuum-compatible.

The operating principle of a PiezoWalk® linear motor actuator is similar to the principle of biological walking. Motion is generated through a succession of coordinated lift/forward/drop cycles of two or more “legs”. Each cycle can be controlled to provide steps from a few picometers to a few microns of linear motion. With repetition rates of up to 100’s of steps per second, continuous linear motion up to 15mm/sec can be achieved. These drives are preloaded, self-clamping and achieve exceptional life times. PI offers open-loop and closed-loop PiezoWalk linear motor actuators.

Voice Coil Actuators are based on a single-phase, brushless electromagnetic linear motor similar to the driver of a loud-speaker. They provide high velocity with zero wear and motion ranges typically up to 1 inch. The V-273/5/7 high-speed, closed loop linear actuator family shown below come with a force sensor option, useful in applications such as switch testing or touch surface sensitivity analysis. The C-413 closed-loop voice coil actuator controller allows on-the-fly switching between force and position mode.

High performance precision linear actuators can be customized for force, speed, resolution and travel length to suit varying applications - like adjusting 798 quarter ton segments in the primary mirror of the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) with nanometer accuracy in the extreme environment of the Chilean Atacama Desert, with a hybrid actuator design.

These classical captive motorized linear actuators convert rotary motion into linear motion by coupling a rotary motor to a lead screw or ball screw. They are available with closed-loop servo motors and, for lower cost applications with stepper motors.

Lead-screw actuators provide high forces and can hold high loads with self-locking capabilities, while ball screw actuators are used for higher speed linear motion applications with longer service life. Position feedback is available with linear encoders and motor shaft mounted rotary encoders. Both types of actuators are based on a combination of an electromagnetic rotary motor with a mechanical screw.
