M-232 High-Resolution Linear Actuator with DC Motor
Compact due to Folded Drive
- Travel range 17 mm
- Minimum incremental motion 0.1 µm
- Velocity up to 1.5 mm/s
- Closed-loop DC motor
- MTBF >5000 h
Compact precision-class linear drive
High-resolution linear actuator, DC motor. Compact design due to folded drive. Rotating tip, rotating pusher. Position-controlled DC motors with a gearhead and high-resolution rotary encoders allow for incremental motion and repeatability of just 100 nm
Fits on the M-105 microtranslation stage.
High-quality components
Extremely low-friction and backlash-free construction. Noncontact limit switches protect the mechanics. Position-controlled variants with differential encoder driver in the connector for safe signal transfer over distances up to 10 m
Application fields
Precision alignment, motorized alternative for micrometer screws.
