Industrial News Buzz - The LSMA-175 low profile precision linear actuators from IntelLiDrives is a single axis system for applications that require low profile narrow positioning stages. The compact, fully enclosed stage measures 25 mm high and 50 mm wide. Travel ranges between 50 mm and 200 mm. Positioning repeatability is 0.31 micron, while maximum speed is 10 mm/sec with payload 8 Kg. Stage features micrometer grade screw with lead pitch 0.5 mm, miniature linear bearing and non-contact limit switches with a choice of either stepper or DC servo motor with encoder.
Matching motion controller and drivers are available as an option. Typical applications include miniature robotics, pick and place automation, specimen handling in life sciences and scientific applications where precision positioning is required within small footprint.
