DuraAct Piezoelectric Transducers for use as Bending Elements, Precision Positioner and High Dynamics Sensors

The P-876 DuraAct from Lambda Photometrics combines the functionality of the piezoceramic material as sensors or actuators, both for electrical charge generation and storage. As an actuator, it can be used as a bending element or as a precision positioner. Other possible uses for DuraAct are as high-dynamics sensor or for energy harvesting.

P-876 DuraAct transducers have commercial application in mechanical and plant engineering, aviation, in the automobile industry as well as sporting goods and building automation.

DuraAct transducers are ideally suited for active and adaptive systems. Embedded in a servo-control loop, vibrations of parts can be reduced and contours can be controlled in the nanometer range.

The P-876 patch actuator features a rugged design with the mechanical stability of a structural material. With their compact design, DuraAct transducers can be applied to structure areas where deformations are to be generated or detected. For this purpose, the transducers can be affixed to the surfaces of structures or integrated as structural elements themselves.

DuraAct patch transducers have the following main application areas:

  • Noise cancellation
  • Vibration cancellation
  • Adaptive surface control, structural deformation and stabilization
  • Energy harvesting
  • High-dynamics positioning and precision motion control
  • Structural health monitoring
