We have succeeded in the operation of an ultrasonic linear motor using Rayleigh waves. We used a 3 inch, 127.8 degrees, Y-cut LiNbO3 wafer. Four IDTs were arranged to excite the x-propagation wave and the y-propagation wave in both directions. The dimensions of the IDT were 25 mm aperture size, 400 mu m pitch, 100 mu m strip width, and there were 10 pairs. The operation area was about 25 mm(2). The driving frequency was about 9.6 MHz in the x-direction and about 9.1 MHz in the y-direction. The most important point was the shape of contact surface and the slider material. For the contact materials, small balls about 1 mm in diameter are introduced to obtain a high enough contact pressure, around 100 MPa. We tried ruby balls, steel balls and tungsten carbide balls. Each slider has three balls to get stable contact at three points. The maximum transfer speed was about 20 cm s(-1). The transfer speed was controllable by changing the driving voltage.
