Intellidrives Introduces Unobstructed Large Aperture XY Tables

The demand for a high accuracy, robust, open-frame stages is met with Intellidrives dual-axis, large aperture stages that address the unique needs of scanning microscopy, wafer and printed circuit board inspection, automated assembly and wide range of specimens and samples scanning in many types of imaging techniques and applications. The large aperture remains unobstructed over complete XY travel.

Very precise fine positioning and control is easily achieved through the combination of a stable closed-loop control system and an associated joystick option. These stages are motorized with brushless servomotors with rotary encoders for smooth velocity and sub-micron resolution linear encoders for fine positioning, using proprietary dual loop servo controls.
