What are piezo actuator arrays ?

NGK has developed proprietary microceramic technologies that allow the configuration of two-dimensional arrays of numerous ultra-thin piezoelectric ceramic elements, which expand and contract when a voltage is applied. This technology makes it possible to build responsive, high-displacement piezo actuator arrays.

Features of piezo actuator arrays

• Microfabrication and high-density integration
  Advanced ceramic manufacturing and microfabrication techniques allow the integration of 32 x 32 = 1024 piezo elements into a space measuring 9 cm².
• High displacement and fast response
  Ideal for optical communication devices and motion devices applications requiring displacement in response to signals.
