Typical Piezo Applications

- Piezoceramic Modules on a circular knitting machine
- Textile machine industry
As a control element in the manufacture of patterned and lace fabrics.

- Piezoceramic benders in Braille keyboards
- Braille instruments for the blind
Piezoelectric multilayer bending actuators control the pins in Braille keyboards. This enables the blind and the partially sighted to "read" the contents of a line on a screen and thus operate a VDU workstation.

- Piezoceramic benders for industrial automation applications, e.g. in pneumatic valves or in energy harvesting systems.
- Industrial automation
Pneumatic valves such as for electro-pneumatic position regulators for opening and closing pipelines.
