Automation & robotics

Unlike traditional piezo systems, Xeryon's products have extremely long lifetimes. Combined with their speed and precision, this makes them highly suitable for (industrial) automation and robotics applications, especially if compactness is important.

Example applications

Semiconductor manufacturing and inspection
Automated assembly
Precision machining
Vibration control and damping
Medical and surgical robots
Metrology and testing equipment
Nano-imprinting and 3D printing
Biotechnology and life sciences research
Optical alignment and focusing
And many more...

Many of these motion-intensive robotics tasks are enabled by compact actuation technologies such as miniature linear actuators and stages, which combine speed, precision, and durability in a small footprint.

Precision & speed

Xeryon's stages and actuators are the market's fastest piezo motion products. Positioning up to 1 nanometer with 400 mm/s or 720 °/s and, low settling times (as low as 20 ms) and fast scanning make our products highly suitable for a wide range of industrial & robotics applications.

Reliability

Xeryon's products are all direct-drive, resulting in a simple, reliable design with backlash-free operation. Compared to other types of piezo motors, Xeryon's ultrasonic piezo motors last more than a hundred times as long.

Ultra compact & lightweight

Xeryon's miniature piezo products are compact and lightweight, with masses starting at just 6 grams for our smallest actuator. This allows for design downsizing, manipulator weight reduction and overall system simplification.

Made in Europe. Trusted globally.

Xeryon fills a niche we haven’t seen anywhere else. The combination of high dynamics, integrated encoder and holding force in such a lightweight, long-stroke actuator is unmatched. Any alternative would require multiple components and still fall short in accuracy and stability.

Chief Technology Officer

High-throughput tissue engineering company

The speed and precision of Xeryon’s actuators enabled us to significantly improve our microscope design and disrupt the market. Most importantly, it has allowed our customers to accelerate scientific discovery. It’s rare to achieve such a technological leap.

Director of R&D

Fluorescence microscope manufacturer

Our laser systems use a large number of motorized optics. After experiencing quality and delivery issues with our main supplier, we decided to give Xeryon a try. They have proven to be a reliable supplier, and we found their piezo actuators to be much more durable than the ones we used before.

Senior Optomechanical Designer

Ultrafast laser source manufacturer

At first, I found it hard to believe this level of performance could come from such a compact package. Xeryon’s technology was the only solution that made it possible to downsize our design and build the machine our company had envisioned, enabling the next generation of automated test equipment. Their team was also incredibly helpful in answering all of our integration questions.
