Victor, N.Y. — Designed for automated nanopositioning in research and industrial instruments, New Scale Technologies has developed a new closed-loop positioning stage that combines an integral optical ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders handle high-res needs in dirty jobs. Linear encoders help minimize errors in motion transmission such as backlash, hysteresis, abbe errors, ball-screw thermal ...

Suggested applications include optics positioning, z-axis positioning of sensors in surface metrology, and general purpose high-precision alignment. The precision ground, preloaded ball-screw coupled ...
