Characteristics:
- travel range 48 mm on each axis, reducible due to adjustable limit switches
- aperture 50 x 50 mm for transmitted light applications
- suitable for industrial applications
- particularly flat and compact design
- exact positioning due to preloaded recirculating ball bearing guides and low-backlash ball screws
- Hall-effect or mechanical limit switches
- 2-phase step motor or DC motor with encoder
- deformation-resistant aluminium
- reflection-poor, black anodized
Option:
- linear measuring system
The XY stages of the CROSS series are characterized by a low assembly height. The XY stage has a square aperture - mainly intended for optical applications. The CROSS 50 has an aperture with an edge length of 50 mm. If no aperture is necessary, it may be closed by an insert plate with assembly bores. The guides are lying at a wide distance from each other and allow a high moment of tilt in both X and Y directions.
The recirculating ball bearing guides and the ball screws are preloaded. Them and the linear measuring systems (available as an accessory) are securely placed inside the stage along the whole journey and enable the most exact and reliable positioning movements even under unfavorable ambient conditions. Thus, a long life is also achieved in continuous industrial operation. Due to the stepless adjustable limit switches, the travel range can be defined arbitrarily.
The basic elements and covering of the XY stages are made of deformation-resistant aluminum and have a top quality black anodized protective coating.
