1 Piezocomposite actuators Piezocomposites are linear high load actuators designed in a discrete joining technology. Their advantages lay in high force generation and high stiffness. Another key advantage is the ability to use a variable selection of piezo-ceramics. With these varieties in design and material, piezocomposite actuators can be used in many applications. Applications of piezocomposite actuators Piezocomposite actuators are used for:  shakers active vibration damping  shock wave generation  material testing  short impulse excitation  Features Features of piezocomposites...

Image 2: Pulse shape of an impulse generator with a symmetrical arrangement. Image 3: Typical double-pulse shape with a seismic mass. PIA-electronics - requirements of the electronic High Voltage Pulser HVP Controller  high pulse currents up to 400 A µs accurate triggering  peak power up to 400 kW  rise times in the µs-range  The basic principle of the HVP amplifier is the following: A capacitor (multiple 100 µF) is charged with a desired voltage. The capacitor will be disconnected from its power supply and suddenly discharged through the piezoshock generator. Currents reach several...

3 Piezoelectrical PiSha Shakers  frequency up to 100 kHz (depending on the shakers configuration) compact dimensions down to mm range are available management for high dynamics. Operating principle of piezoeletric shakers Piezo shakers convert the electrical excitation signal directly into a motion. The amplitude is set by the operating voltage, velocity and maximum frequency are depending on the current. The internal structure of the shaker is adapted to the occurring high forces, pressures and accelerations. So the shaker achieves a reliable operation under oscillation at a continuous...
