Drum Processing Subsystem
Description
Design Features
- Granite-based motion subsystem designed for high resolution processing of drums and mandrels
- Long-travel air-bearing stage built on a granite spar to minimize straightness and flatness errors
- High-precision direct-drive rotary stage for accurate feedback control
- Air-bearing focusing axis perpendicular to rotating drum
- Integrated 3-jaw chucks pre-aligned to lower system runout
- Easy transformation between rotating drum surface and traversing linear axis using an Aerotech motion controller
- Applications include lathe machining (additive or subtractive) and drum inspection/characterization
