Products Multilayer cofired actuator
PNM (lead-magnesium-niobate) electrostrictive actuator is composed of a PNM stack, which is a multi-layer configuration with very thin layers (125-250 micron) that are diffusion bonded during the manufacturing process.

The net positive displacement is a superposition of the strain of the individual layers.
They allow for small, accurate movements with the required force.
