HL.500-XY Series

The HL.500-XY stage has crossed roller bearings for the ultimate in stability, linearity and reduced stiction under heavy loads. We use 20% more bearings for improved bidirectional linearity over the entire travel range, with notable performance improvement at the end of travel. A va­riety of manual and motorized actuators are available: manual actuators, differential microm­eters, as well as open-loop and closed loop drives. The HL.500-XY has individual non-influencing locks on each axis that will hold the stage in place even under a 3g jolt. The HL.500-XY is compatible with our MX-AB and MX-AB2 vertical mounting blocks; when combined with our 100cr or 200cr stages a high load XYZ stage system can be assembled.
