Side Knob BiSlide® Assembly
The Velmex Side Knob BiSlide Assembly is a unique
translation stage suitable for precision vertical test
stands. Smooth, precision rotary to linear motion is
created using a right angle timing belt drive connected
to a fine pitch lead screw. The motion allows the
slide to move a payload up and down into position
smoothly and precisely.
The Side Knob BiSlide Stage is constructed with
hard-coat anodized, aluminum dovetail ways and
smooth motion PTFE bearings; BiSlide Assemblies
deliver higher rigidity for longer life and more precise
movement.
The Side Knob BiSlide Stage features:
•t A large 3.15 inch diameter knob with a folding
crank for pinpoint control
•t A zero backlash timing belt and fine pitch lead
screw drive for smooth motion
•t Precision lead screw constructed with rolled acme
thread and hard nickel-plated for smooth, troublefree operation and long life
•t Long-life I-beam design for maximum stiffness
and strength
•t 45 degree opposing ways provide maximum
rigidity in any direction
•t High precision, lightweight offering more durability
and strength
•t Large carriage provides a 4.6” x 3.1” (11.7 x 7.9
cm) mounting surface for carrying a wide variety
of payloads
•t Corrosion resistant and impact tolerant for longer
life and straight, smooth movement
•t Exclusive StabiNut™ delivers a solid, low friction
connection between the lead screw and carriage
