Resonant-type piezoelectric impact motors can improve the output capability effectively. A new construction of asymmetric inertial masses is proposed to synthesize approximate saw-tooth wave resonant vibration with matched anti-phase and in-phase modes. A prototype is designed, manufactured, and tested. With 40 Vp–p, 400 Hz exciting voltage for the anti-phase mode and 16 Vp–p, 800 Hz exciting voltage for the in-phase mode, the prototype provides a maximum no-load velocity of 17.2 mm/s and a maximum output power of 0.72 mW with 100 mN load. The velocity and output power of the prototype in the proposed resonant state are near three orders of magnitude higher than those in the traditional quasi-static state.
