Özet: The growing importance and popularity of microsystems enforces the need for teaching students in this field.Many studies on microsystems concern very precise positioning control systems using piezoceramicmicroactuators, which have a great importance in medicine, microbiology or laser technology. The presentedpaper describes an educational microactuator system for positioning in the range of 25 micrometers. By solvingdifferent tasks, students are taught how to cope with problems occurring during the design of the micropositioningcontroller. Additional simulation tools allowed for presentation of the comparison results for twogroups of students with and without preliminary training on the simulator.
