LINEAX-4
LINEAX-4® A supremely compact linear motor actuated stage suitable for applications where reliable precision positioning and high acceleration are desirable characteristics must fit in to a limited space. This compact envelope is well suited for many instrument type machines photonic and robotic devices.
PRODUCT SUMMARY
LINEAX-4 Features & Benefits
.. Zero-Cogging ironless brush-less linear servo motor
.. Powerful linear motors combined with low mass attachments provide high acceleration.
.. Available with a range of high-resolution linear encoders from 5 microns to 50 nanometer resolution.
.. Encoders provide precise position feedback allow closed loop digital servo control.
.. LINEAX built rugged for reliable operation and long service life
LINEAX-4
Direct drive linear motors for stage positioning exhibit advantages over
conventional screw driven stages. Lacking the elastic deformation seen in screw drive systems allows direct drive systems to produce more compliant positioning trajectories, faster settling times, higher repeatability and faster servo response. Free of rotating inertia, much faster acceleration and higher velocities are achievable. Wear of rotating components is eliminated increasing reliability, uptime, and extending servicing intervals each of these contributes to reducing cost of ownership. The direct drive linear motor with the high-resolution encoder allows precise velocity regulation. The linear motor and other components in LINEAX can be prepared for vacuum compatibility.

Applications
LINEAX-4 all structural materials are high-strength aluminum alloys, all surfaces are precision machined, hard coat-anodize finished in light gray. One or two precision re-circulating linear ball bearings are guided by 2 integrally pre-loaded ball tracks on each rail. The guide system requires only standard lubrication service. .

LINEAX-4 Stages have the most compact envelope available with no motor overhang. Linear motor, encoder and cables are internal with cables terminating in connectors mounted to the stage's base. Multiple versatile installation surfaces are provided and LX-4 mounts in many configurations.
LINEAX-4 is an outstanding precision linear motor positioning stage well suited for applications in the semiconductor, instrumentation, fiber-optic, biomedical, laser, photonic and micro-machining industries. Special finishes like Teflon impregnated hard coat, non-anodized, and electro-less Nickel can be furnished to accommodate specific application environments. Stainless steel components are made from polished material.
