Piezoelectric Bending Transducer (Q220-A4BR-1305YB) Meta||Unit Cost @ Qty. x100||$179.20 Motion in the radial direction

Motion in the radial direction is typically on the order of microns or tens of microns

When an electric field having the same polarity and orientation as the original polarization field is placed across the thickness of a single sheet of piezoceramic

When an electric field having the same polarity and orientation as the original polarization field is placed across the thickness of a single layer disk

It has high motion per volt sensitivity but its upper temperature range is limited and its properties are more sensitive to temperature

Because they have no center shim reinforcement

Piezoelectric Bending Transducer (Q220-A4BR-1305YB) Meta||Unit Cost @ Qty. x100||$179.20 Motion in the radial directionA 2 layer piezoelectric actuator produces curvature when one piezo layer expands while the other layer contracts. These transducers are often referred to as benders, bimorphs, or flexural elements. Bender motion on the order of hundreds to thousands of microns, and bender force from tens to hundreds of grams, is typical. The brass shim reinforcement laminated between the two piezoelectric layers is an economical approach to producing a rugged actuator.
