The M-660 PILine® rotation stage from Physik Instrumente (PI) opens up a new dimension in fast positioning, be it of samples in microscopy or biotechnology, or integrated into test systems of mass storage devices, for example. The stage achieves a speed of up to 2 rotations per second. The integrated U-164 PILine® linear motors offer a maximum torque of up to 0.3 Nm regardless of the direction of motion and the stage is designed for a maximum load of 1 kg. The direct force transmission of the ultrasonic piezo motors onto the ceramic friction ring on the moving platform make the stage compact and self-locking when at rest.
M-660 in figures:
- Unlimited travel range
- Maximum speed 720 °/s
- Only 15 mm high
- Ceramic direct drive with self-locking has significantly higher positional stability than classical motors
- Direct position measurement with 40 µrad resolution
- Free aperture with 35 mm Ø
- Compact combination with translation stages is possible
