AEROTECH Introduces Low-Profile Open XY Linear Motor Stages for High Dynamic, Quasi-Static Applications

Aerotech has introduced a series of integrated open-frame stages with precise geometric performance and micrometer-level straightness. The new PlanarDLA stages include high precision roller bearings, precision machined surfaces and non-contact linear motors that drive through the axes’ center of stiffness. These features result in straightness to ±0.5µm and flatness to ±1.25µm.
