Application context
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Step-and-acquire across areas far wider than a single field of view.
Move parts between fixed stations with closed-loop encoders holding position over long shifts.
Coordinate several axes from software for processing, inspection and test sequences.
System integration
Use these checks to connect KA1000 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
Technical FAQ
Travel range(mm): 1000 · Closed loop resolution (µm): 0.5. Separate travel from resolution and both from repeatability. Repeatability is what an automated sequence actually depends on, and it is the figure most often absent from a headline specification.
Motor and its stepping angle (°): Two-phase 57 stepping motor, 1.8 · Brand and model number of motor: Shinano,SST59D5301. Pair open-loop mechanics with the specified high-voltage or inertial driver, and closed-loop variants with the controller their capacitive, strain-gauge or encoder feedback requires. Matching connectors do not guarantee electrical compatibility.
