A hands-on way to see what a dielectric elastomer stack can do
Figures describe the underlying stacked dielectric elastomer actuator technology and vary with stack dimensions. Full evaluation-kit specifications are provided in the user manual.
Manual and control software
Everything you need to set up the kit and start driving the actuator from your own PC.
01 – WHAT IT IS
A compact, two-part demonstrator: a driver & control enclosure on the left, and a clear-windowed actuator case on the right, joined by a flexible interconnect. Together they turn an invisible physical effect — electrostatic contraction of a stacked polymer — into something you can watch happen.
02 – WHAT IT’S BUILT THIS WAY
Everything needed to run a first demonstration is already inside the enclosure: driver electronics, power switching, and status indication. There’s nothing to configure before the actuator moves for the first time.
- Driver & control enclosure
Self-contained electronics with a single power switch – no bench supply required. - Actuator viewing window
Clear acrylic case exposes the stacked elastomer so the contraction is visible in real time. - Status
Amber indicator confirms the driver is powered and actuating on command. - Thumb-screw access
Tool-free enclosure opening for a closer look at the actuator stack itself.

Plugin
Connect power and the interconnect cable – no other setup.
Trigger
Press the control button, or drive it from the software GUI.
Switch on
The status confirms the driver is ready.
What it move
The stack visibly contracts – silently, with no moving mechanical parts.
