Zaber lengthens T-LLS motorized dovetail slide
Richmond, BC, Canada – Oct 19, 2007 - Zaber’s LLS915 dovetail slide is a 915mm travel version of its T-LLS series of computer controlled motorized dovetail slides, and is Zaber’s longest travel motorized dovetail slide to date. The T-LLS series now includes linear slides with travels ranging from 105mm to 915mm. Zaber’s standard dovetail slides offer 0.16 um resolution at speeds up to 6mm/s. Custom leadscrew configurations may be requested to achieve higher speeds at the expense of positioning resolution.

The LLS915 requires an external motor controller. Zaber recommends their T-CD series of stepper motor controllers. These controllers may be daisy chained with other Zaber devices and connected to a single USB or RS232 serial port on any computer. Demo software for a variety of programming environments is available for free download from the Zaber website.

About Zaber:
Zaber Technologies Inc. was founded in 1997 when precision motion control was typically accomplished with DC motors and encoders. In 2000 Zaber introduced the first daisy-chainable miniature linear actuator based on stepper motor technology with integrated RS232 communications and control electronics in one small package. Since then Zaber has added over 120 products to its family of precision motion control and laboratory automation devices including linear actuators, linear slides, motorized x-y-z stages, rotation stages, motorized mirror mounts, and micro-stepping motor controllers.
