High Precision Positioning Stages
For over 30 years Anorad has been the technological leader in the design, manufacture and application of precision positioning stages. Following is a brief description of our diverse line of precision stages for designing state-of-the-art motion control systems.
Linear Positioning Stages
- The CHPS series direct drive linear stages are available in three widths or frame sizes (150, 200 and 250mm) to carry a wide range of payloads. They are also designed to incorporate either iron core or ironless type linear motors in order to satisfy a variety of applications. Standard travel lengths up to 1.3m are available with longer travel lengths available upon review.
- ICON 150 crossed roller bearing stages are used in short-stroke ultra high precision applications such as those found in the photonics industry.
- WKY integrated XY stages offer ultra smooth motion in step-and-scan applications. Available in an open frame construction, they are ideal for optical inspection applications needing dual-sided workpiece access or bottom illumination.
Rotary Positioning Stages
- The DDR-150 is a direct drive rotary table for highly accurate and repeatable rotary motion featuring a stainless steel top plate and unlimited travel
- The GR-XA is a high capacity worm gear driven stage built with a stainless steel crossed roller bearing for high rigidity in moderate precision applications
Vertical Lift Stages
- The Z-wedge precision vertical lift stage features crossed roller bearings for maximum rigidity and glass scale encoders for ultra high precision applications.
Engineered-to-Order Systems
- In addition to the configurations already mentioned, Anorad manufactures custom, engineered-to-order, positioning stages to meet unique OEM requirements.
