The M-562F-XYZ ULTRAlign™ Metric Linear XYZ Stage features stainless steel construction for superior long-term stability, with thermally matched, hardened steel crossed roller bearings for unsurpassed performance. The crossed roller bearings and precision-manufactured bearing reference surfaces provide exceptionally straight linear travel over a 13 mm range, with angular deviation better than 100 μrad about any axis. We measure each stage on a six-axis interferometer to ensure performance. The robust design of the 562 Series Stages makes them ideally suited for repetitive, high use fiber optic manufacturing and research applications. These stages have greater thermal immunity due to their higher mass. And larger diameter bearings increase the stiffness of the stage. Each 562 stage axis is equipped with a non-influencing locking mechanism, to maintain sub-micron positioning, when locking or unlocking. Specially designed actuator mounting blocks allow quick and easy actuator changes; on any axis; at any time. This right-handed stage version allows for ergonomic actuator placement. Three actuators are required and not included. Newport offers a comprehensive selection of manual or motorized actuators to choose from.
