Applications for SQUIGGLE Motors
What could you do with a motor this small?
Tiny piezoelectric SQUIGGLE motors bring new possibilities for
miniaturization and performance to next-generation electronic
products. Many designers use SQUIGGLE micro motors to add
motion-based features to products where traditional motors are
impractical. Others use SQUIGGLE motors to replace larger motors and
actuators, reducing overall product size and power
consumption. The power and precision of SQUIGGLE motors is also
valued in numerous laboratory and research applications.
SQUIGGLE motors are used in optics and imaging, electronic access
control, automotive modules, medical devices, consumer electronics,
industrial and research applications, and in aerospace and defense
systems. What could you do with a motor this small?
