The ART300 series of motorized stages provides precision rotational
positioning for laboratory and industrial applications alike.
This industrial-grade stage also has excellent accuracy and resolution,
making it the ideal indexer for precision factory automation.
Construction Features
The bases of the ART310 and ART315 stages are fabricated from
a special aluminum alloy tooling plate, while the ART320 and ART330
bases are machined castings of the same material. This material
offers significant weight savings in multi-axis arrangements and
other weight critical applications, while providing high structural
stiffness and long-term stability.
Each stage incorporates dual large diameter pre-loaded angular
contact bearings that are spaced to provide excellent error motion
specifications, as well as good load handling capability. The
drive mechanism is a precision gear and matched worm that are
preloaded to reduce backlash.
Both the ART320 and ART330 are oil-filled to assure long gear
life at high continuous table speeds.
All stage tabletops feature Teflon®-impregnated hardcoats,
with stainless steel Helicoil inserts to prevent thread wear.
Flexible Options
Options include aperture tabletops, home marker cams, and alternate
gear ratios to optimize stage performance for each application.
All stages are constructed to be easily mounted in the horizontal
or vertical position without the need for a right-angle bracket.
Motor and Drives
All ART300 stages include an Aerotech brushless servomotor. A
full range of matching drives and controls are available for a
complete single-source solution.
