Motorized Translation Stage

   The 100cri motorized crossed roller bearing translation stage offers exceptionally smooth linear travel.  The time-tested design has been improved with the addition of more bearing area than similar stages.  The increased bearing surface reduces non-linear motion when changing directions.

   100cri stages are an integration of our 100cr crossed roller translation stage and our 841 actuators.  By combining the actuator and the stage we have created a smaller package.  Our e series and MC2000 controllers drive the stage through a closed loop interface between the controller and the motor encoder.  The closed loop connection ensures 0.2 µm and 0.1 µm resolution, respectively.  The encoder coupling also enables the use of the DR1000 digital readout for repeated or relative positioning requirements.

   There is a quick reference scale on both the top and bottom of the drive housing.  They are available in either right or left hand versions.  Multiple 100cri units are stackable for XY positioning requirements and are compatible with our MX-AB for Z axis applications.  High-speed versions available upon request.
