The PRO560 series is similar in design to the PRO280
series stages but provides additional load carrying
capability with a wider cross-section.
Rugged Construction
The robust aluminum cover is hard-coated to provide a
scratch resistant surface, and the side seals keep dirt and
particulates out of the stage to protect the bearing surfaces
from contamination. The vertical orientation of the seals
easily deflects debris away from the stage, and the tabletop
can be outfitted with an optional brush assembly to remove
any particles that collect on the hard cover. Competitive
top-seal designs can ingest debris in the seal, resulting in
the eventual failure and replacement of the sealing
mechanism.
NEMA 34 Motor Support
The PRO560 has a NEMA 34 motor flange mounting
interface and can be ordered with an Aerotech standard
brushless rotary motor installed. Alternatively, the stage can
be ordered without a motor for the attachment of third-party
NEMA 34 DC brush, brushless, or stepper motors.
Highly Configurable
The stage is equipped with a ground 5 mm/rev ball screw
and can be outfitted with English or metric bolt-hole pattern
tabletops. A motor-mounted brake option is available to
prevent back driving the screw when power is removed
from the servomotor with the stage in a vertical orientation.
A fold-back kit is also available to effectively reduce the
overall stage length for space-constrained applications.
