Motorized Z-axis Linear Positioning Stage

Home > Motorized Vertical Single-axis Stages

Stepper Motor Driven Linear Vertical Linear Positioning Stage, Range of travel, 40 mm

These high resolution, compact, low profile elevator stages feature high stability 200 mm x 200 mm tables and 40 mm of vertical travel. High precision ball bearing profile rails assure very high parallelism and smooth motion throughout the raising and lowering of the table. These Z-Axis Stages are ideal for: Microscopy, inspection, metrology, positioning, photonics, sampling, and laser drilling and machining.

Driven by Two-Phase Stepper Motors, the DAG40-200-01 and the DAG40-200-04 Motorized Elevator Stages feature 2 micron positioning accuracy, and resolutions of 0.042 microns (with a 10 Micro-steps per step motor driver in use). The knob for manual adjustment on the DAG40-200-01 (shown) is replaced with a Quadrature Incremental Optical Encoder for position verification on the DAG40-200-04. The load capacity of these compact stages is 30 kg.

Speed of travel is 5 mm per second and limit switches prevent over traveling. The table of each stage has a precise pattern of threaded holes for fixtures or tooling, and holes in the base allow for easy integration into a new or existing application.

These stages require a Motion Controller that can be ordered as a complete plug-and-play system with RS-232, USB, joystick, trackball, and keypad control.
