● Precision ground ball-screw or lead-screw drive
● DC servo or stepper motor
● Crossed-roller bearings
● High resolution (0.1 μm), repeatability (±0.75 μm), and accuracy (±1.5 μm)
● High vacuum capable
● Compact multi-axis configurations
High Accuracy
The precision ground ball-screw or lead screw provides exceptional accuracy, repeatability and ultra-fine positioning resolution capability to 0.1 micron. The DC servomotor is equipped with a rotary encoder. The crossed-roller linear bearings provide smooth travel and excellent payload characteristics.
Optional Vacuum Preparation
The MPS50SL is available with optional vacuum preparation to 10-6 Torr. It is the perfect compact stage choice for today demanding vacuum applications in markets such as semiconductor manufacturing and inspection, optics fabrication and military/aerospace.
Highly Configurable
An optional breadboard mounting plate provides direct mounting to both English and metric breadboards. Any of the models can be mounted in an XY configuration and, with the right-angle L-bracket, in XYZ configurations. It can also be directly mounted to the larger MPS75SL stage.
The MPS50SL is a member of the MPS (Miniature Positioning Stage) family of linear, rotary, goniometer and vertical lift and Z stages. Two or more stages can easily be mounted together in numerous combinations using standardized mounting patterns and adapter plates.
