High-Dynamics PIMag Linear Stage
V-522 • V-524 • V-528
-
Physik Instrumente GmbH & Co. KG
Reference-class linear stage. Linear positioning stages with magnetic direct drives largely dispense with mechanical components in the drivetrain and the drive force acts directly on the motion platform. Together with precision bearings, a high travel accuracy and longer lifetime is achieved. The linear positioning stages are particularly suitable for scanning applications. PIMag® Voice Coil. Voice coil drives consist of 2 essential components: A permanent magnet and a coil, which is located in the air gap of the magnetic field. When current flows through the coil, it moves in the magnetic field of the permanent magnet. The direction of motion depends on the polarity. Thanks to their low weight and friction-free drive principle, voice coil drives are particularly suitable for applications, which require high dynamics and high velocities at limited travel ranges. High scan frequencies and precision positioning are also possible with these drives, because they are free of the effects of hysteresis.

Linear And Gantry Robots
-
Linear robots, whether gantry robots or other Cartesian designs, can deliver precise, smooth motion and excellent load-bearing capabilities required by advanced automation systems. With configurations ranging from single- to multi-axis, linear robots offer a design flexibility that can address a wide range of automation tasks — from long-travel transfer robots to small precision motion stages. In many cases, linear robots can even replace multiple six-axis articulated arm robots, reducing the total cost, footprint and deployment time for automation systems.

Voltage Controlled Linearized Attenuators To 16 GHz
-
Pulsar's voltage controlled, PIN diode linearized attenuators are available from 0.25-16 GHz with attenuation ranges of 32 and 64 dB. Each model includes an integrated linearizer, and a driver that controls the attenuation level. This design results in transient free switching between attenuation levels as opposed to the spurious outputs that result when an attenuation value is switched either on or off by a direct digitally controlled attenuator. Transfer function is 8 dB / Volt.
