May 8, 2018 – The AU200-50x50-SC Alignment Stage from Optimal Engineering Systems, Inc. (OES) is an XY stage for such applications as: alignment, assembly, laser drilling, machining, medical, industrial, semiconductor handling, testing, scanning, and optical applications. The linear travel of the X and Y axes is 50 mm x 50mm, and the resolution of each axis is 5 microns(non-micro-step) or 0.125 microns (with 20 micro-steps per step motor driver in use), repeatability is 1.5microns, and positional accuracy is 5 microns.
The 1 mm per-turn lead screws and preloaded V-groove and crossed roller bearings contribute to the AU200-50x50-SC Alignment Stage.
The XY table measures 155 mm x 155 mm and features a precision pattern of drilled and threaded mounting holes to facilitate the addition tooling or fixtures. Additionally a table with a large open aperture is also available.
The two-phase stepper motors with knobs for manual adjustments of each axis are standard for the AU200-50x50-SC Alignment Stage, however, the knobs can be replaced with incremental encoders for position verification or closed loop operation. As an option, servo motors are also available. Compatible Motion Controllers are also available from OES and the AU200-50x50-SC alignment stage can be ordered as a complete plug-and-play system.
