Development of 5-DOF Piezoelectric Actuator for Planar—Angular Positioning

A novel five degrees of freedom (5-DOF) piezoelectric actuator is proposed and analyzed in this paper. The actuator can provide unlimited self-motion in the plane and angular positioning of the spherical payload. The actuator is composed of a cylindrical bronze frame and a piezo ceramic ring glued o...
