ABOUT US
Working towards the SDGs
Mechano Transformer Corporation supports the Sustainable Development Goals.
Piezoelectric actuators respond quickly, control precisely and consume very little energy. By bringing them to more fields and more products, we want to help make progress on the goals adopted by the United Nations.
What a piezoelectric actuator does well
Nanometre resolution
Positioning down to the nanometre.
Vacuum compatible
It works in a vacuum environment.
Microsecond response
It responds in as little as a few microseconds.
Non magnetic
No magnetic field, and very low power draw while holding position.
Almost no wear
The movement produces hardly any frictional wear.
Displacement is tiny
On its own a piezoelectric actuator moves only a few tens of micrometres, which has kept an excellent device out of most applications.
MechaTrans®
We pair the actuator with a displacement enlargement mechanism, a mechanical transformer, that multiplies the movement several times to several tens of times over. We believe it opens the device up to actuator work of every kind.
What we offer
MechaTrans®
A mechanical transformer multiplies the displacement of the stack several times over, giving large travel from a standard part.

A manual stage with 20 nanometre fine positioning and coarse travel in the millimetre range.

Where we are heading
We will keep improving what piezoelectric actuators can do and where they can be used, with the aim of cutting CO2 emissions through better energy efficiency and helping build a sustainable society.
