Piezoelectric Bending Transducer (Q220-A4BR-1305YB) Meta||Unit Cost @ Qty. x100||$179.20 Thin vacuum sputtered nickel electrodes

Thin vacuum sputtered nickel electrodes produce extremely low current leakage and low magnetic permeability

This plate is a non magnetic silver electrode

Because they have no center shim reinforcement

or flexural elements

Piezoelectric Bending Transducer (Q220-A4BR-1305YB) Meta||Unit Cost @ Qty. x100||$179.20 Thin vacuum sputtered nickel electrodesA 2 layer piezoelectric actuator produces curvature when one piezo layer expands while the other layer contracts. These transducers are often referred to as benders, bimorphs, or flexural elements. Bender motion on the order of hundreds to thousands of microns, and bender force from tens to hundreds of grams, is typical. The brass shim reinforcement laminated between the two piezoelectric layers is an economical approach to producing a rugged actuator.
