Nanomotion ultrasonic piezo motor technology allows for ultra-high precision positioning combined with position stability within a small package size. The Edges motors are designed to provide precise positioning in even the most intricate of photonics systems. They offer 0.3N of drive force over an unlimited travel range for linear or rotary applications, and the 13.5 x 7.6 x 3.15mm / 0.55g package makes them the smallest piezo motors on the market today.
Also available is the Edge-4X motor, which offers four times the drive force in a package slightly smaller than four times the size of the standard Edge motor. The optimisation of size, weight, and power allows for integration of the Edge motor into small and intricate optronic systems such as auto focus modules, rotary and linear shutters, pan and tilt platforms, and many more.
The EDGE Motor
The EDGE motor is the smallest industrial motor of its kind available in the marketplace today. Providing typical 0.4N stall force, maximum velocity of 200 mm/sec and unlimited linear or rotary motion, the EDGE motor offers extensive opportunities in applications that suit a wide range of industries. The EDGE motor works with a uniquely designed, compact ASIC-based driver, XCD and XCD2 controller / driver. The EDGE motor can be easily integrated with most types of bearing structures and it is ideal for mass production applications.
The EDGE-4X Motor
The EDGE-4X motor expands the EDGE product line of low voltage piezo motors, bringing four times the force of the Edge motor. The EDGE-4X provides up to 1.3N stall force and unlimited travel for linear or rotary applications. Continuing to optimize size, weight and power.

Nanomotion supplies ceramic drive strips, rings, and CCS Ceramic Coated Steel for all our motor types. Standard strips, rings and disks are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes. Nanomotion can also provide custom drive strips/rings for different application requirements. The mating drive surface is critical to the motor’s performance. All specifications are based on using Nanomotion’s drive surfaces. Most of Nanomotion’s standard drive strips are provided with vacuum compatible, double sided tape for easy mounting. The motor user manual defines the proper mounting procedure.
Standard Ceramic Strips:
CCS (Ceramic Coated Steel)
CR (Ceramic Rings)
