PICMA® Bender actuators have differential control. Displacement of the PICMA® bending actuators: Clamped on one side (top) and on both sides (bottom). Multilayer contracting plates can be manufactured in a variety of shapes, e.g., square- or disc-shaped, and are available on request. These plates can be applied for example, to metal or silicon substrates, in order to realize bender or pump elements with low control voltages. 31.07.2020
