Motion control systems
Custom motion control systems for advanced automation, scanning, and positioning applications, designed and built in the UK.
Precision engineering
At LG Motion, we design and manufacture bespoke motion control systems for customer who demand accuracy, repeatability, and system-level integration. With more than 20 years of experience, we deliver scalable motion platforms that power everything from precision scanning equipment to complex industrial automation.
Whether you’re scanning fine art, positioning sensors, or automating R&D environments, our systems are engineered to move with purpose — and precision.
Complete motion control systems
We provide end-to-end development of motion control systems, from mechanical design and mechatronics to motor control electronics and software integration.
Core capabilities:
- Linear and rotary motion platforms
- Multi-axis systems (up to 6 DOF)
- Servo and stepper motor control integration
- Custom motion sequencing and software
- Remote and PC-based interface options
- Solutions for harsh, scientific, or controlled environments
Every system is engineered in-house from our Basingstoke, Hampshire facility, ensuring tight control over quality, customisation, and delivery.
Featured applications
Large scale art scanners
We engineer large format XYZ scanning systems for the precise imaging and analysis of fine art, heritage pieces, and museum collections.
These custom-built platforms integrate precision linear drives, rigid gantry structures, and software-controlled positioning — enabling ultra-high-resolution scanning across canvases, murals, and rare artefacts.
Used by worldwide conservation professionals, museums, and research institutions, our art scanners deliver stability and sub-millimetre accuracy over scan areas as large as several metres.
XYZ Scanning System: Low frequency ultrasound scanning tank
In collaboration with our partners, we developed a custom XYZ scanning system designed for low-frequency ultrasound imaging in aqueous environments. Built with corrosion-resistant materials and a stable motion gantry, the system provides repeatable 3D scanning within a large water tank.
- Integrated with high-precision motor drives, the scanner supports:
- Accurate 3D transducer positioning
- Full X, Y, Z travel control
- Software-defined scan paths and data collection synchronisation
This system is ideal for materials testing, academic research, and lab-based imaging where control and repeatability is critical.
