Picture Credit score: Physike Instrumente
The brand new V-827 direct-drive linear phases are tailor-made for demanding functions with excessive hundreds to 150kg, excessive throughput necessities, and a necessity for prolonged reliability. These phases excel in straightness and flatness efficiency, surpassing comparable motorized linear translation phases out there out there. Outfitted with a strong, non-cogging direct drive motor, the V-827 precision positioning stage household delivers distinctive efficiency in manufacturing environments. The stage design permits for straightforward XY configuration and multi-axis operation with further vertical translation phases and rotary positioning phases.
Particles Safety for Laser Processing
The V-827 wide-body household of linear phases is accessible with facet seals (SS) for particles safety, best for laser processing and comparable manufacturing or automation functions
Absolute and Incremental Encoder Choices
In its absolute encoder model, the brand new V-827 stage affords not solely a outstanding 1nm decision but additionally ensures the most secure and most effective begin, eliminating the necessity for initialization or homing procedures. Moreover, the ultra-precision recirculating ball bearings are designed to function maintenance-free all through the stage’s lifespan.
Options
- Accessible travels of 300, 500, 750, and 1000mm
- Direct drive motor for environment friendly, dynamic efficiency
- Recirculating bearings for wonderful straightness and flatness
- Sin/cos or absolute encoder possibility for accuracy, repeatability, and security (absolute)
- Extensive Base for Excessive stability and multi-axis setup- best for scanning, measuring, machining, imaging, alignment
Why Three Section Direct Drive Motors?
Three-phase motors present increased dynamics and friction-free, maintenance-free operation. They switch drive on to the movement platform, eliminating backlash and play. Recirculating ball bearings guarantee reliability and robustness, with a excessive load capability of 150 kg for lengthy bearing lifetime.
Glorious Geometric Efficiency: Straightness/Flatness
Deciding on the proper linear stage is essential for optimum efficiency in high-precision functions. The V-827 affords distinctive geometric accuracy of 4µm/5µm straightness/flatness over 1000mm journey and 0.15µm bidirectional repeatability, together with excessive dynamic properties appropriate for automation. Partnered with PI’s A-8xx collection movement controllers, these phases obtain unparalleled movement efficiency, facilitated by EtherCAT®-based connectivity permitting for straightforward integration of third-party tools.
