Miniature Transducers

In 1880, brothers and colleagues Jacques and Pierre Curie discovered that putting pressure on certain materials created electricity. Taken from the Greek word for "squeeze" (piezein), piezoelectricity was born. Commonly known as the "piezo effect," it also occurs when an electrical field is applied and changes the dimensions of materials. More than 100 years later, PI Ceramic (a division of PI Physik Instrumente) is a leader in the field of piezo ceramic components, including its newest line of mini transducers.

µCMM Optical Coordinate Measuring System

So far, geometries such as the bore holes of injection valves in the automotive industry, for example, could hardly be measured optically. Lateral probing of components with vertical surfaces was limited to tactile measuring systems, CT solutions or complex special solutions. This changes with a new function of the optical coordinate measuring system µCMM from Bruker Alicona. Vertical surfaces of more than 90° can now also be measured optically.
