The PIglide RM series of motorized rotation stages are designed for accuracy, precision, high stiffness, and ease of use, and can be mounted in any orientation.
Various options can be combined to create a solution ideal for point-to-point indexing or constant velocity scanning.
The RM stages offer superior travel accuracy, flatness, and wobble performance. Because they are friction free and require no maintenance or lubrication, they are ideal for use in cleanrooms.
Absolute encoders supply explicit position information that enables immediate determination of the position. Therefore, no referencing is necessary when switching on and this increases efficiency and safety during operation.
Optical alignment, metrology, inspection systems, calibration, scanning.
