Servomotor stage features high resolution

DR (dual profile rail) positioning stages are a series of low-cost, stable, linear motor-driven stages with travel lengths to 160 in. These wide-footprint, brushless, linear motor stages have load capabilities of 442 lb, high continuous force, and resolution to 1 µm. The stages are supplied with noncontact, three-phase brushless linear motors commutated either sinusoidally or trapezoidally with Hall effect sensors.
