Linear stage A-143 series

XYZverticalmotorized

The PIglide miniature linear stage with air bearing has a linear motor drive, preloaded air bearings, and an integrated optical linear encoder. This stage provides very high precision with a small footprint. The combination of noncontact components results in frictionless motion that offers outstanding dynamic performance, nanometer precision positioning, and an exceptionally long lifetime. To set up an XYZ system, the vertical mounting option is available for the A-143, including brake and counterbalance. Accessories and options PIglide filter and air preparation kits Single and multi-axis motion controllers Models with brake and pneumatic counterbalance for vertical mounting Application fields The stage is ideally suited for many high-precision and highly dynamic applications, such as metrology, inspection, fiber positioning, optics positioning, scanning, and patterning. With the noncontact design that requires no lubrication and a securely attached cable, the linear stage is ideal for cleanroom and medical technology applications.
