26 Nov 2009 Aerotech has launched a new range of high precision linear positioning stages for high throughput industrial production and test applications. The low-cost PRO165LM series features and improves upon Aerotech’s time-tested hard-top and side sealed stage design with a powerful direct-drive brushless linear motor, micron level linear encoder feedback and long-life linear motion guide bearings for extremely smooth motion and exceptional servo system sensitivity.
With a nominal width of 165 mm and ten travel range options from 100 mm to 1 metre, the new stages can handle payloads up to 45 kg, speeds to 2 m/sec and acceleration to 3g with sub-micron level repeatability. |
