Elliptec AG: Who we are
Elliptec Resonant Actuator AG 3
1998:
· Idea of low-cost piezo motor at Siemens R&D
· Prototype development at Siemens TTB / USA
2001:
· Foundation of Elliptec AG as a spin-off from SIEMENS
Today:
· Elliptec proprietary technology enables a paradigm shift in motion control in regards to dynamics, precision and cost.
· More than 1 Mio units are manufactured and shipped from our own automated factory in Dortmund. The ISO 9001 certification underscores its high quality level.
Elliptec AG: History
Elliptec Resonant Actuator AG 4

Product and Technology Description
Piezo technology is based on a ceramic material which can transform electrical energy in mechanical energy and visa versa
The Elliptec Innovation is four fold:
The piezo ceramic is fit in a metal frame, which will start to vibrate when a electrical signal is applied
The creation of a bidirectional movement with one piezo once the metal frame is pressed against a driven element
A simple and low cost Motor design which uses only 4 parts
Automated Motor assembly process allows for fast scale of economics
Product benefits: high precision and dynamic range, low cost
