Miniaturization is much in demand. Whether in the field of electronics, mechanical engineering or biology, high demands have to be met in terms of dimensional accuracy of
ultra-miniature structures in particular. To be able to measure structures in the sub-micrometer range reliable, specialist know-how is essential; simply adopting a downsized standard
solution from the "big world" is not an option. Linear positioners, permitting tiny increments beneath a measuring probe by means of piezo actuators, have been a tried and proven method
for a long time. They do a reliable job even in the nanometer range. One of the disadvantages of them, though, is the low dynamism of their drives and their limited feed length. A
patented system comprising a fast DC drive in combination with a high-precision piezo rotary drive mounted on a common spindle has provided a solution to this dilemma. Rapid delivery to
the measurement point, then minimal feed rate for maximum resolution over long positioning distances is no longer a problem. |
Technologies driving the future
The success story of the FAULHABER brand began over 60 years ago with the development of the self-supporting, skew-wound ironless rotor coil by Dr. Fritz Faulhaber. It is the cornerstone and
quality seal for FAULHABERs pioneering drive technology, whose dynamics, precision and reliability have unlocked new opportunities for a host of cutting-edge applications.
Today, the name FAULHABER is synonymous with unrivalled technology, competence and services delivered by a global network of companies renowned for their expertise in drive, precision and micro
systems. The group specializes in the development and production of high-quality standard products as well as intricate customized solutions for practically all areas in which superior
precision and reliability are as essential as micro designs.
