Aerotech’s nano Motion Technology now includes linear, linear vertical, rotary and goniometric positioners with specifications such as 1 nanometer positioning resolution, speeds to 500 mm/sec and acceleration to 5 g. With the direct-drive ANT series now covering 95 mm and 130 mm wide linear and vertical-linear translation stages in addition to rotary and goniometric angular positioners, users can specify long travel range, multi-axis nanometer resolution mechanics for high throughput production and demanding test and research applications. Specialized direct-drive motor technology is being used for smooth motion with in-position stability.
