Ultra-Precision Vertical Linear Motor Stage, 100 mm Travel, 100 N Load

The XMS100V stage is comprised of a standard XMS100 stage mounted on a high flatness (surface flatness within 5 µm) vertical plate and a low friction air cylinder connected to the carriage. The custom-designed connection of the air cylinder to the carriage eliminates the effect of the air cylinder’s motion on the performance of the XMS100 stage. With the proper adjustment of pressure, a perfect balance of the load can be achieved. When motor power is turned off, the air cylinder’s valve will enable a controlled descent of the carriage. Also available with a more compact, but load-specific, magnetic counterweight.
