• A piezoelectric sensor is a device that detects
  changes in pressure, temperature, strain, and
  acceleration and converts them into an electric
  charge. To do this, the sensor uses the
  piezoelectric effect. It is true that when
  voltage is applied then, the material distorts.
• It has become a speaker that you can use to
  create a high-pitched tone. It carries both
  non-encased and encased piezo elements, which
  come in several sizes and ratings.

• Optical Adjustment
• Some optics need to be adjusted or modulated with
  the broad frequency response and have a minimum
  number of moving parts. It does offer you fast
  and accurate control for a long service life.
• The angle of the mirror, or diffraction, may need
  to be precisely that is varied accordingly.
• Fast response solenoids
• Some processes require quick and precise
  mechanical actuation, which is difficult to
  achieve with electromagnetic solenoids. However,
  the speed may not matter because the power
  consumption or size's compactness is the
  priority.
• With this piezo element, you can experience fast
  response and low power consumption in small
  packages, compared to electromagnetic solenoids.

• Ultrasonic Cleaning
• The piezoelectric element is also used for the
  ultrasonic cleaning application and perform
  ultrasonic cleaning when objects are immersed in
  the solvent.
• It is a transducer that then agitates the solvent
  as there are many objects. It comes with several
  objects that are on accessible surfaces, which
  can be cleaned with the use of this methodology.
