METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF MULTI-LAYERED ACTUATORS

摘要

The method involves processing so-called green foils containing a flexible bonding medium with embedded piezoelectric and/or electrostrictive material particles and metal electrode areas to form compressed multilayer compound elements before a sintering stage. Foil elements which defines the cross-section of a finished actuator are separated from the green foil and stacked. Their are prepared for the manufacture of a multilayer compound element. The method involves processing foils containing a flexible bonding medium in which piezoelectric and/or electrostrictive material particles are embedded, so-called green foils (1), with applied areas of metal electrodes to form compressed multilayer compound elements (8) before a sintering stage. Foil elements (4) whose area defines the cross-sectional area of a finished actuator are separated from the green foil with metallisation and stacked in preparation for the manufacture of a multilayer compound element. Independent claims are also included for the following: an arrangement for the production of multilayer actuators.
