Piezoelectric Extending Transducer (T220-H4BR-2513YE) Model:T220-H4BR-2513YE clamp conditions

clamp conditions

Because they have no center shim reinforcement

Performance data for the S128-H5FR-1107YB is summarized in the following tables and plots

A 1-layer piezoelectric actuator produces curvature when one piezo layer expands while the other layer contracts

Piezoelectric Extending Transducer (T220-H4BR-2513YE) Model:T220-H4BR-2513YE clamp conditionsA 2 layer element behaves like a single layer when both layers expand (or contract) together. If an electric field is applied which makes the element thinner, extension along the length and width results. Typically, only motion along one axis is utilized. Extender motion on the order of microns to tens of microns, and force from tens to hundreds of Newtons is typical.
