Motorized Single-axis Table

Home > Motorized Linear Actuators > Low Cost Linear Single-axis Stages

This motorized positioning table is made of aluminum alloy with an elegant black anodized surface.

It provides 500 mm of travel at a Maximum Speed with Stepper Motor of 40 mm per second. The drive mechanism is lead screw.

The bench size is 160 x 160 mm and has a body weight of 8.3 Kg.

The maximum load of this stage table is 50 Kg.

The resolution of 2.0 microns is achieved with a 10 micro-steps per step stepper motor driver. This linear stage is
also available with a Three Phase Brushless Servo Motor and Optical Encoder (-02 Version) or DC Servo Motor and Optical Encoder (-03 Version).

The knob mounted on the motor allows for manual adjustment. This knob may be replaced with an Optical Encoder (-04 Version) for precision position verification.

This stage requires a Motion Controller that can be ordered as a complete plug-and-play system with RS-232, USB, joystick and keypad control.
