4-Axis Gantry

The 4-Axis Gantry (YY'ZZ') is a four axis positioning stage that consists of two SRS-007-03-006-01 brushless linear motor stages each vertically mounted to two independently moving horizontal linear axis. It is ideal for applications that require independent multiple motions on a single travel plane.

Each horizontal linear axis uses H2W brushless linear motor BLDM-D04 to generate a continuous/peak force of 16.5 lbs [73.6 N]/49.0 lbs [220 N] with each moving table capable of a total stroke length of 47.1 in [1196 mm]. Each moving table has an independent non-contact 1.0-micron resolution encoder head reading a single encoder scale allowing for precise positioning and is guided by a rigid recirculating ball linear bearing block sharing a single linear bearing rail.

Each vertical axis (SRS-007-03-006-01) uses H2W brushless linear motor BLDM-B04 to generate a continuous/peak force of 6.2 lbs [27.8 N]/18.7 lbs [83.3 N] with a total stroke length of 7.0 in [177.8 mm]. The non-contact 1.0-micron resolution encoder allows for precise positioning. It is guided by a rigid recirculating ball linear bearing.

The entire stage is assembled on a single piece of aluminum extrusion, thus reducing the overall size and weight of the system. There are also provisions that allow customer cables to be routed within the cable carriers. It has end-of-travel rubber bumper stops. A home positioning sensor, end-of-travel-sensors, and custom mounting holes on the moving tables are available upon request.
