A novel two degree-of-freedom (DOF) ultrasonic planar motor based on traveling wave has been proposed in this paper. The stator is the key component of the planar motor. The proposed stator is in a bar type, consisting of three piezoelectric ceramic cylinders and a metal driving head. The effective...
