Shear Mode Piezo Plates from American Piezo
APC International is pleased to offer shear mode piezo plates. Shear mode plates are poled along the standard 1 axis. Following poling, APC’s skilled staff remove our standard fired-on silver electrodes and re-electrode the piezoelectric ceramic along the 3 axis using an epoxy silver or a sputtered electrode.
APC offers four standard sheer mode plates available for quick delivery:
– 15mm x 15mm x 1mm – 850 material
– 15mm x 15mm x 1mm – 850 material w/ wrap-around electrode
– 15mm x 15mm x 1mm – 840 material
– 15mm x 15mm x 1mm – 840 material w/ wrap-around electrode
In addition to our standard plates, APC can also custom manufacture shear mode piezo plates specific for your application.
Consider using APC shear mode plates in your next piezo application requiring greater sensitivity or greater displacement.
The picture above is representative of APC’s 15mm x 15mm x 1mm shear mode plates. The notches indicate the positive face of the ceramic (red arrow indicates the poling direction). Blue indicates epoxy silver. Note the wrap-around electrode for easier lead attachment.
