H2W Technologies introduces a high acceleration, voice coil driven, XY positioning stage with a precision bearing system, which minimizes the amount of pitch, yaw, and roll in the system. The voice coil stage (VCS08-700/08-350-CR-01-MC-XY) is a closed loop positioning system that can be used for high force positioning applications. The stage is driven by three NCC moving coil type linear actuators and is guided by dual crossed roller bearings on the X-Axis (bottom axis) and a precision linear rail on the Y-Axis (top axis). Each voice coil has a 0.80" [20.3 mm] stroke; generate 35 lbs [159 N] of continuous force and 105 lbs [477 N] of peak force, or a combined 70 lbs [318 N] continuous force and 210 lbs [953 N] of peak force on the X-Axis (bottom axis). It includes a 1 micron resolution linear encoder on each axis. Voice coil positioning stages are ideal for applications that require quick, short moves with fast settling times.
Features:
- High force
- 2 axis motion control
- High acceleration
- Compact footprint
- Custom strokes and force configurations available
