Matching Your Requirements To Morgan's Capabilities
Applications Engineering
It is our objective to help our customers as much as possible when designing Piezo components into their products. Applications engineering assistance is provided as a support facility across the product portfolio.
Materials
Process control of raw materials and their fabrication into ceramic compounds ensures high quality and repeatability of properties. The control of the specially formulated ceramic materials are vital to the success of the product range and we continually strive to reduce variability in our processes.
Testing And Characterisation
Computer modelling techniques employed in the development of new designs requires input of the most accurate material property data available. Morgan focuses on test capabilities to provide this characterisation service to their customers.
Components
First class manufacturing processes are employed to provide components engineered for top performance of electrical and mechanical properties. Quality systems to ISO 9001:2000 are in place to provide the structure for control, function and traceability through the manufacturing facilities.
Electrodes
Expertise has been developed in the deposition of many electrode material types on to ceramics with patterns, wrap-around and feed through configurations to custom designs. The ability to provide special electrodes can facilitate the manufacture of the devices into which the ceramic components are mounted.
Assemblies. Bimorphs And Transducers
Our customers have found that there are great advantages in working closely with us so that we can provide them with a full or sub-assembly. The transducers we manufacture to our own design are a complete, fully tested assembly ready for immediate fit into a system.
Multilayer Technology
Piezo Ceramic Multilayer Actuators (PCMA) operate at reduced drive voltage to deliver small accurate displacements rapidly and with low power consumption. This gives advantages over electromagnetic actuators in specific applications.
Application
We offer the entire range of specialty ceramic products, which are manufactured with premium quality raw materials. The products which we offer are as follows:
