PI qualifies its products with external measuring equipment. These are calibrated in part and traceable to a national standard. Using the PIOne incremental encoder and capacitive sensors, PI manufactures own metrology for inclusion in PI products.
The product range from a two-ton hexapod to a ten-gram nanopositioner requires that PI can both manufacture and qualify these systems. For this reason, PI operates a heavy duty hall at its location in Karlsruhe for the assembly and measurement of masses up to five tons.
PI has the capability to manufacture and qualify products under cleanroom conditions, which is extended and improved continually according to market needs.
Precision components, stable control and a great deal of experience in engineering are essential for high-precision complex motion and positioning solutions. PI is a supplier of technologically sophisticated drive components and high-precision positioners and also offers all levels of integration for engineered subsystems.
PI has extensive hexapod production capacities at its site in Karlsruhe, Germany, to meet a wide range of customer requirements. The spacious, modern factory layout combines the latest findings in automation, digitalization, lean approaches, and ergonomics.
The technology center provides space not only for offices but also for application labs, metrology labs, and cleanrooms for vacuum or cryogenic chambers.
PI aims to apply the same high quality, safety and environmental protection standards worldwide. The Integrated Management System reflects this commitment.
PI manufactures in autonomous organization fractals. Each unit is responsible for its own product line, has all the necessary skills and production equipment.
Globally, supply chains are broken, resulting in disruptions and supply failures. The PI Group is also affected and therefore cannot always meet desired delivery dates. This is why, we started the "Sustainable Investment" initiative.
