Overview

A modular XYZ solution to customised requirements

Objectives

• To establish a modular solution to customised requirements
• It was important to select modular and adaptable positioning stages, motion controls and support frame components that would suit their specific needs

Solution

• Three axis XYZ gantry with usable scanning area of up to 1000mm x 1000mm x 700mm with positional accuracy to <0.05mm per axis and a positioning resolution of <0.002mm
• The gantry is configured with dual, parallel X axes with one side motor driven and the other side supported by a linear bearing
• The Y and Z axes are single BiSlide units
• Each axis is driven by a NEMA 23 frame high torque stepping microstepping motor set at 1000 steps/rev with a 2mm precision pitch precision leadscrew.
• Control of each axis made easy with the VIX500IM Microstepping Drive Indexer

Benefits Gained

• LG Motion's BiSlide range used here offers long life and minimal maintenance
• A customised solution with a fast delivery time
