LST-E Series linear stages offer high load capacity and a variety of different options for lead screw pitch and travels.

Zaber's LST-E Series linear stages are designed to be simple to set up and easy to use. They are designed to connect directly to our A-MCA Series stepper motor controllers, or they can be used with any 2-phase stepper motor controller.

LST-E stages can be easily mounted in XY or XYZ configuration for multi-axis applications. The built-in rotary encoders allow for closed-loop operation and slip/stall recovery features. A version with built-in controllers and encoders (A-LST-E) is also available.

The A-MCA controller is capable of controlling any bipolar stepper motor or actuator up to 2.5 A/phase. It mounts easily to various surfaces, and includes a manual control knob for manual velocity and displacement control.

Specifications for the LST-E include:

  • 254, 500, 750, 1000 and 1500 mm travel
  • 100 kg load capacity
  • Up to 420 mm/s and up to 560 N thrust
  • Built-in rotary encoder
  • Designed for use with an A-MCA Series stepper motor controller or any 2-phase stepper motor controller
