“Demand for our patented SQUIGGLE® motors has increased dramatically in the past six months as designers recognize
the motors’ unique benefits in high-volume applications such as mobile phone cameras,” said New Scale president David
Henderson. “We are pleased to be expanding our manufacturing locally as we gear up for our next wave of growth.”
About the SQUIGGLE Motor
The patented SQUIGGLE motor design uses a threaded nut and screw to create precise linear movement in a very small
space. Piezoelectric ceramics create ultrasonic vibrations in the nut, causing the screw to rotate and translate
with high precision. SQUIGGLE motors are smaller, more precise, less expensive and more efficient than conventional
electromagnetic motors. In addition, they use 90 percent fewer parts and require no gear reduction, which eliminates
many failure modes. This ceramic motor is fundamentally compatible with high magnetic fields including MRI chambers.
SQUIGGLE motors are used in nanotechnology research, microelectronics, optics, lasers, biotechnology, medical devices,
aerospace and defense, fluid control, and office/consumer products including mobile phone cameras.
About New Scale Technologies, Inc.
New Scale Technologies, Inc. (www.newscaletech.com) makes miniature ceramic motors that enable our customers to create
smaller products and research tools. Our piezoelectric SQUIGGLE motors are smaller, more efficient and more precise
than conventional motors. With only seven parts and no gears, this patented piezoelectric motor design uses ultrasonic
vibrations to create precise linear motion. New Scale’s miniature motors are compatible with extreme environments
including vacuum, very low (sub-Kelvin) temperatures, and high magnetic fields.
