Featured Motion Control News Stories

ANT95-R Direct-Drive Rotary Stages

Aerotech ANT95-R direct-drive rotary stages are part of Aerotech’s nano Motion Technology product family and offer unprecedented in-position stability (0.05 arc sec) and incremental motion (0.1 arc sec) performance. They are designed for compatibility and easy integration with Aerotech’s ANT series and together these stages provide accuracy, stability, and small size performance capability for nanomanufacturing and inspection.

ANT180-L Direct-Drive Linear Stages

The ANT180-L linear, crossed-roller, direct-drive stages are driven by a high-power linear motor with ironless forcer and U-channel magnet track. The stage reaches a peak unloaded acceleration of 2 g and maximum velocity of 500 mm/s. The ironless forcer is a cog-free design that provides exceptional velocity control.

AGS1500 Cartesian Gantry

AGS1500 series Cartesian gantries offer precise, high-dynamic contouring in a planar design that minimizes dynamic pitch errors at the workpoint. The AGS1500 reaches speeds of 3 m/s and accelerations of 5 g and dual linear motors and encoders are included on the lower axis for the highest level of performance and precision. The rugged noncontact optical linear encoders offer resolutions to 1 nm.
