860A-1 In Stock

The 860A-1 by Newport is a 1-inch Travel Motorizer designed for a wide range of applications, whether involving heavy or light loads, all while minimizing acoustic and mechanical noise. Particularly suited for situations where precise position information is not a requirement, this motorizer's compact design enables it to be seamlessly integrated into confined spaces, a crucial feature when working with gimbaled mirror mounts. Noteworthy is the design of the 860A-1's nose button, which exerts pressure against the load surface rather than directly connecting or engaging with it. To ensure the load's compliance with the retracting leadscrew, an external return force, such as a spring, is necessary.

The 860A-1 boasts an impressive array of features, including a substantial load capacity of up to 30 pounds for vertical lift, a wide speed range, built-in limits for added safety, spindle position indicators thoughtfully engraved in both metric and English units, a rotating spindle to mitigate starting friction, and an optional vacuum capability. All of these features are housed within a sleek black-anodized, grained aluminum body. The 860A-1 relies on a low-inertia DC motor with a gearhead featuring robust all-steel gears. Its nosepiece is constructed from phosphor bronze and is equipped with a standard 3/8-40 mounting thread. This motorizer also incorporates a precision stainless-steel lead screw with a carbide ball tip, further enhancing its performance and longevity. Additionally, this motorizer engineered for an extended operational life, capable of enduring more than 50,000 cycles with a 20-pound load.
