Piezoelectric Actuator PAM3-6.5R
JCOPTIX piezo screw actuators provide nanometer-scale precision linear drive, directly replacing micrometers or screw adjusters on manual precision stages and optical mounts to automate high-precision positioning. Applications include optical-path fine tuning, fiber coupling alignment, precision micromanipulation, semiconductor microassembly, interferometer construction, and laser-processing positioning. Piezo inertial rotary drive provides smooth linear motion, 2 travel options, minimum increments down to 20 nm, and no reverse backlash over the travel. Power-off self-locking maintains position for long-term stability in repeated fine-adjustment and hold-position applications. The system supports PC software and handheld control with dedicated four-channel controllers. Computer interfaces support further development, and external feedback modules enable closed-loop automatic adjustment. PAMC-104 supports an external handheld controller but no controller chaining; PAMC-204 supports chaining for more axes and software-adjustable voltage, but not a hand controller. Select for laboratory setup or automated production. Precautions: 1. A load greater than 3N is recommended for optimum piezoceramic response; avoid unloaded operation. 2. Inertial friction drive has no single fixed standard step or absolute positioning accuracy. 3. Speed and minimum step vary slightly by motion direction and individual device. Piezo screw actuators. Models: PAM3-6.5R, PAM6-13R. Travel 6.5 mm or 13 mm; minimum increments 20 or 30nm; spherical pushrod ends; mounting shafts Ø6mm or Ø9.5 mm. These JCOPTIX aluminum-alloy actuators provide nanometer-precision linear positioning. An internal piezo inertial rotary mechanism rotates a rotor to generate axial screw thrust, reaching 1.5 mm/min. PAM3-6.5R has travel ≥6.5 mm, maximum 9 mm, and 30 nm minimum increment; PAM6-13R has travel ≥13 mm, maximum 18 mm, and 20 nm minimum increment. Both have spherical pushrod ends; mounting shaft diameters are Ø6mm and Ø9.5 mm respectively, replacing conventional stage micrometers or mirror-mount adjusters. Safe, reliable use requires PAMC-104 or PAMC-204 controllers. Both provide four independently controlled channels and PC software support. PAMC-104 cannot be chained but accepts PAM-RC100 handheld control. PAMC-204 can be chained but does not accept handheld control. PAM-RC100 is a dedicated optional remote for PAMC-104. Dedicated piezo screw controllers. Models: PAMC-104, PAMC-204, PAM-RC100. 4 independently controlled axes; RS485/USB computer control; local operation with a dedicated handheld controller. JCOPTIX PAMC-104 and PAMC-204 both have 4 independent channels, accepting 4 actuators per controller but driving only one at a time. RS485 and USB interfaces, a supplied USB-to-485 cable, and a USB communications cable support PC program control. The source describes manual/programmed operation, with model-specific limits: PAMC-104 accepts optional PAM-RC100 handheld control and cannot be chained; PAMC-204 supports chained controllers and command-adjustable output voltage for finer motion control but does not support handheld remotes.
