SHREWSBURY, Mass., March 26, 2026 — PI's piezo design and manufacturing division, PI Ceramic, offers a comprehensive portfolio of standard, custom and value-added piezoelectric devices from piezo stacks to ultrasonic transducers. In addition to producing advanced piezoelectric ceramic formulations and components, PI supplies a wide range of piezo drivers and controllers for applications spanning nanopositioning, nano-dosing and pumping, and healthcare technologies, for both OEM and research.
With the introduction of a new multi-channel, low-noise piezo driver, PI further expands its lineup of high-precision piezo amplifiers. These solutions are ideal for applications requiring compact, cost-effective electronics to drive multi-axis piezo devices, tubes, benders and positioning stages or to provide multiple channels of high-voltage output. The E-413 amplifier family features bipolar operation with peak power of 50W, peak currents up to 100mA per channel and an output range of -250 V to +250 V. Compact piezo driver modules are also available for seamless OEM integration.
Applications of Piezo Drivers and Amplifiers
Piezoelectric transducers, including actuators, scanner tubes and benders, offer response times in the microsecond range, enabling exceptionally fast and precise motion. This performance makes them well-suited for applications such as high-speed switching, valve control, micromachining, micro-pumping and micro-dispensing, as well as active optics and vibration cancellation systems.
