Start-Up
You can assemble stacked XY- or XYZ-systems with M-403 stages. For
mounting, use the M4 x 30 screws which come with the stages:
■
For an XY-system, use the four counter-sunk holes for M4 in the base
of the upper M-403 stage and the four M4 threaded holes in the
moving platform of the lower M-403 stage (see Fig. above).
■
For Z-axis mounting, the M-403.AP2 Z-axis adapter plate is required.
First mount this plate on the front of the Z-axis stage using the two M4
threaded holes in the stage base (see Fig. above). Then affix the
adapter plate to the moving platform of the lower M-403 stage (see
Fig. below).
