Figure 7 - Air Inlet Fitting Location
Turning off the air supply when not in use
When the stage is not in use, the air supply may be turned off to preserve compressed air and energy.
The stage table should never be moved without the air supply turned on. Moving the
stage table with no air supply, causing sliding metal-to-metal contact, may damage the
bearing surfaces.
6.5. Affixing the Payload to the Stage
The payload should be flat, rigid, and comparable to the stage in quality. For valid system performance, the
mounting interface surface should be flat within 1 µm per 50 mm.
The stage tabletop features 15x M6x1
tapped holes for mounting the user’s payload. These are the only features
that should be used to attach a payload to the stage.
Figure 8 - Payload Mounting Holes
Prepare the payload mounting surface and the stage table with precision flat stones to remove any burrs or high
spots. Clean the payload mounting surface and the stage table with the appropriate cleaners (isopropyl alcohol).
