M-014
Ultra-High-Precision, Side-Drive Stages with Magnetic-Kinematic Bearings
  • Travel Range 25 mm
  • Compact Side Drive
  • Straightness/Flatness £ 0.3 µm
  • PZT Drive for Scanning and Tracking Applications
  • 0.1 µm Resolution w/ Closed-Loop DC Motor
  • 5 nm Resolution with Closed-Loop PZT Drive
  • 30 mm Ø Clear Aperture






M-014 ultra-high-precision magnetically coupled stages use the force of integrated magnets to preload the bearing. This magnetic preload results in extremely uniform and smooth motion with minimum friction. Unlike conventional stages, where two bearings with limited parallelism guide the carriage (inducing runout and rotational errors) in M-014 stages, only one of the two linear bearings has a guiding function (V-groove) while the second bearing is for support only (U-groove).

Ultra-Straight Motion
The coupling between the stage and the space-saving side drive units (DC-motor drives, PZTs, micrometer drives) is not rigid but via magnets. This design allows only on-axis forces (drive direction) to be transmitted to the stage; torque-induced positioning errors induced by non-parallelism between the drive axis and the guiding axis are eliminated.

M-014 is available in 6 versions:
The basic version, the M-014.00, is equipped with a precision manual micrometer providing a sensitivity of 1 µm. M-014.D01 is equipped with a closed-loop DC-motor drive providing 0.1 µm minimum incremental motion.

High-Resolution Piezo Option
For both the manual and motorized version, closed-loop and open-loop PZT drives are available. They provide 5 nm minimum incremental motion over a travel range of 45 µm and allow for dynamic operation such as scanning andtracking. The closed-loop PZT drive provides repeatability of 90 nm (see the "PZT Actuators" section for further details on PZT actuators and recommended controllers).

All stages can be cross stacked and combined with the M-053.10 (manual versions) and M-053.20 (motorized versions) Z-axis mounting bracket to provide multi-axis motion. Vertical use of the M-014 is only permitted with loads less than 0.5 kg. For vertical positioning with loads in excess of 0.5 kg we recommend M-126 stages (see link) and the 125.90 Z-axis mounting bracket.

Upgrades
M-014 stages without PZT or DC-motor drives can be upgraded at a later date (see ordering information).
