USB Motorized Linear Stages
Mini USB Motorized Linear Stages
The MMLS Series Miniature Motorized Stages offer an innovative design that combines submicron precision with user-friendly operation and affordability, making them an ideal choice for programmable motion applications. These stages feature a dual-bearing design to eliminate backlash and a proprietary optical encoder, achieving nanometer-level resolution and submicron repeatability. Each stage connects to a smart motor driver with USB/RS232 interfaces. The controller includes a manual control knob for intuitive operation: pressing it activates manual mode, while rotating it initiates movement, with speed increasing as the knob turns and direction reversing when rotated past the center. An Ethernet control option is available via an additional control box. The system includes a wall-pluggable power supply, a downloadable intuitive GUI, and a command list for custom programming.
