SmartStage XY Linear Positioner
Description
The Dover Motion SmartStage linear positioner is a simple to integrate high resolution stage. Unlike a traditional direct-drive linear motor stage, it includes a built-in controller, drive, communications interface, and I/O. The on-board Dover Encoder and precision chrome on glass scale provide accurate, repeatable, and stable positioning with 5nm resolution. By including the Dover Encoder, interpolator, and motion controller electronics all within the stage, the SmartStage positioner is able to achieve high in-position stability and avoid noise errors introduced by external cabling, poor grounding, and other detrimental influences on the feedback signal. Stiff, crossed roller bearings allow for a wide range of payloads. These bearings also offer exceptional trajectory performance and excel for applications such as constant velocity scanning that requires smooth motion. The novel magnetic topology of Dover Motion’s ironless linear motor technology is optimized for high servo bandwidth and uniform force over the entire stroke, and it has no backlash as commonly experienced with screw-based positioners. This allows SmartStage axes to perform equally well for applications requiring high-throughput step and settle or constant velocity scanning. This potent combination of crossed roller bearing ways and Dover Motion’s linear motor drive system results in superior instrument performance.
