Custom Piezo Elements from APC; APC’s iPhone App Makes Calculations Easy

Custom Piezoelectric Elements from APC: Piezo Discs, Rings, Plates and Cylinders

For the last 28 years APC has served as a key supplier of piezoelectric ceramic elements to customers in the defense, medical, industrial equipment, and energy markets.  APC’s technical sales team works with customers in the design stages of production to ensure our customers’ piezoelectric elements can be manufactured cost effectively and will perform as expected in the intended application. APC is equally adept at supplying small quantities of piezo elements for development and prototyping as well as millions of piezo elements for full scale production runs. APC has a reputation in the industry for supplying high-tolerance piezoelectric elements with a diameter or length of less than 50.8 mm.

APC’s iPhone App Makes Calculations Easy

Never make a mistake calculating the properties of piezo ceramics again using this app from APC.

The APCPiezoCalc App is a resourceful tool when needing to calculate the physical and electrical properties of many piezoelectric ceramics. The application is capable of calculating:
– frequency constant
– resonance frequency
– capacitance
– dielectric constant
– static displacement
– static voltage

The APCPiezoCalc is preloaded with the material properties of APC’s piezoelectric materials. The user is also able to add custom material properties in their calculations to allow for a broader use.
