NUTEC COMPONENTS INCORPORATED 81 Jefryn Boulevard, Deer Park NY 11729 www.NUTEC1.com
PRODUCT SUMMARY
The Q-Max precision positioning stage series from NUTEC developed for maximum stiffness and high resolution. A short stroke translation stage, that is capable of precise positioning in either vertical or horizontal orientations, while maintaining extremely tight trajectory control.
QMax Features & Benefits
The Q-MAX high stiffness positioning stage offers reliable linear positioning for trajectory critical applications. Guided by substantial crossed roller guides, featuring a constant bearing support geometry. The Q-MAX is driven to position via1mm lead precision ground roller lead screw. The fine pitch roller leadscrew drive is highly preloaded but offers low hysteresis drive without back driving in vertical applications. This screw is suitable for drive by either a servo or stepper motors. The Q-MAX includes digital limit/home sensors and high-resolution linear encoder system. The Standard Q-MAX is offered with an attractive gray anodize finish or can be provided with a clean room preparation.
Applications
Wherever tight trajectory control is required, the Q-Max series of positioning stages meet the most demanding positioning requirements. Precision dispense and liquid extrusion dispensing in the flat panel and microelectronic wafer fabrication industry. In the photonic instrument field, wherever position adjustment is critical for example the focus adjustment of fast, high numerical aperture, high magnification imaging systems, Q-Max is the right choice. Q-Max is used by many brand name automatic inspection and machine vision OEM's, Q-MAX has the precision required for a range of positioning tasks including holographic inspection and high magnification imaging inspection and testing. It can be used extremely well for vertical Z-axis applications with overhanging payloads that create an offset moment loading. It is equally well suited for horizontal applications requiring stability, low trajectory error and high resolution for precise positioning.
