PhiDrive’s experience in the piezoelectric motor sector has allowed the creation of an innovative motor that exploits the micrometric deformation of piezoelectric stacks to achieve infinite rotary or linear motion. Our goal is to include these rotary actuators in key equipment and mechanisms used in spacecraft

• Extremely high precision
• Completely oil/lubricant free motor components
• Energy savings, thanks to the absence of electrical alimentation in stationary conditions
• High torque/mass ratio
• Absence of gears, meaning no backlash motion
• No need for mechanical brakes
• Normally blocked with a slipping force up to 3 times greater than the actuating force

Our technology is also suitable for other sectors and markets, as PhiDrive can modify it according to customer needs.
