Application context
Replace a manual adjuster on a mount you already own, without redesigning the assembly.
Adjust optics inside an enclosure, vacuum chamber or hazardous area without entering it.
Let software walk a mirror or lens to peak signal instead of an operator turning a knob.

Technical FAQ
Travel range: 10 mm. Separate travel from resolution and both from repeatability. Repeatability is what an automated sequence actually depends on, and it is the figure most often absent from a headline specification.
Controller: MC - Newton E4. Pair open-loop mechanics with the specified high-voltage or inertial driver, and closed-loop variants with the controller their capacitive, strain-gauge or encoder feedback requires. Matching connectors do not guarantee electrical compatibility.
Specifying this part
Piezo actuators that replace the manual adjusters on a kinematic mount, adding remote or automated alignment without rebuilding the optical assembly around a motorised stage.
Most of the range is orderable as .HV (high vacuum), .UHV (ultra-high vacuum) or .NM (non-magnetic). The suffix changes materials, cabling and bake compatibility rather than the mechanics, so specify it against the chamber the stage will live in.
Full series comparison, controller pairing and mounting hardware on the ambient piezo stages overview, or work through the selection with the configurator.
