Piezo legs lead march to miniaturisation
Article Abstract:
A Piezo leg is machined from a single solid piece and has excellent power-to-weight ratio. The features, applications and technical aspects of Piezo motor are discussed. The specialty of a miniature electric linear motor is that it emulates the movement of an insect and can lift up to 1,000 times its won weight.
