XY Linear Stages

Stages with Magnetic Direct-Drive Linear Motor

The  friction-free magnetic direct drive principle allows for most dynamic  stages. Compared with motor-spindle-based stages, they use fewer  mechanical components which results in less friction and backlash and  thus more precision. Synlas’s SL stages combine the magnetic direct drive with highly precise preloaded air bearings for even better performance.

The  SL-series systems have two axes that are both floating over the same  surface. An XY motion platform moves at high speeds and floats only  microns above the precision granite base. It offers dynamic, smooth and  repeatable movement, with or without loa
