IDL225-LM Series
Long Travel Industrial Linear Stages
2.0 —
Description
The IDL225-LM Series of Industrial-grade linear stages is another robust
family of high quality Newport products, designed for higher throughput
and reliability. This series is designed specifically for laser micro-
machining applications that require high precision, down to 250 nm.
Additional features for use in industrial environments include a hard top
cover, flexible side bands and air purge.
Starting with an FEA-optimized body, recirculating bearings, high
efficiency linear motor and a direct read linear encoder, all components
were selected to enable the high precision and dynamic performance
expected of high throughput and demanding applications. Other features
include positive and negative end of runs to prevent overtravel, energy
absorbers for unintended scenarios and an origin switch that can be used
as a reference for absolute positioning.
Four sizes are offered to address a wide range of loads and travel.
