High precision triple-axis stage from OES

October 6, 2020 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

stages

The XAB-050-XX-01 from Optimal Engineering Systems, Inc. (OES) is a low-cost solution for the precise measurement of compound angles or the rotation of an object to precise angular positions. It integrates a two-axis Alpha-Beta goniometer on top of a single-axis linear actuator. The Beta-axis has a travel range of +/- 15° with a rotation height […]

Dual-axis pitch and roll stages precisely measure curvature and angles

April 9, 2020 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

stages

The precise measurements of angles and the curvature of objects are easily determined using two new Pitch and Roll stages from OES (Optimal Engineering Systems, Inc.) The PR100-45-01 is driven by stepper motors and the PR100-45-02 is driven by brushless servo motors with quadrature incremental optical encoders. The pitch axis (lower stage) is a high-precision […]

Motorized yaw-pitch-roll stages from OES

February 7, 2020 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

stages

Three new high accuracy yaw-pitch-roll stages have been introduced by OES (Optimal Engineering Systems, Inc.) – the YPR100-10-15-01 (stepper-motor driven, pictured below), the YPR100-10-15-02 (brushless servo-motor driven) and the YPR100-10-15-03 (dc servo motor driven). These stages are suitable for the precise measurement of compound angles or the curvature of an object. The yaw axis (bottom […]

New two-axis X-theta positioning system from H2W Technologies

January 23, 2020 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

stages

The SRT-030/360-026-01 is a two-axis X-theta positioning system ideal for precision motion control applications that require coordinated linear and rotary positioning. The two-axis system consists of a rotary dc servo motor with encoder mounted to a moving brushless linear-motor-driven positioning stage. The linear axis uses an H2W brushless linear motor, the BLDM-C08, to generate a […]
