The new M-505 family of translation stages is based on the successful M-510 series. These new stages provide one of the lowest profiles on the market of high-performance translation stages, making them ideally suited for applications where space is limited. The stages feature a precision-machined base of high-density, stress-relieved aluminum for exceptional stability and minimum weight. Precision-ground recirculating ballscrews (better accuracy than rolled ballscrews) with preloaded nuts provide low-friction, maintenance-free and backlash-free positioning.

Maintenance Free
High-precision linear guiding rails with recirculating ball bearings guarantee 1 µm/ 100 mm straightness and flatness. They are also immune to cage migration problems of crossed roller bearings (can be an issue where small ranges are scanned repeatedly) and are maintenance free.

Three motor drives are currently available:

Models M-505.xPD with ActiveDrive™
This version features a direct-coupled motor/encoder pro-viding 0.25 µm minimum incremental motion and a max. velocity of 50 mm/sec. For superior dynamic performance, we integrated our unsurpassed ActiveDrive™ system. This unique design features a high-efficiency PWM servo-amplifier mounted side-by-side with the motor. It provides several decisive advantages:
  • Increased efficiency, by eliminating power losses between the amplifier and motor
  • Reduced cost of ownership and improved reliability because no external driver is required
  • Elimination of PWM amplifier noise radiation, because the amplifier and motor are mounted together in the same electrically shielded case

Models M-505.xDG are equipped with 3-watt DC motors with zero-backlash gearhead and shaft-mounted optical encoders (2048 counts/ rev.). The gear ratio is 29.6:1, providing minimum incremental motion of 50 nanometers (design resolution 17 nm).

Models M-505.x2S are equipped with direct-drive, microstepped, 2-phase, stepper motors (20,000 counts/rev.) providing 0.1 µm minimum incremental motion and ultra-smooth, vibration-free positioning.

Direction-Sensing Origin Switch
Integrated, high-precision, non-contact Hall-effect origin and limit switches with direction sensing on the origin switch protect your equipment and increase versatility in automation applications.
