462-XYZ-LH-M In Stock

The 462-XYZ-LH-M by Newport is a highly advanced ULTRAlign Linear Stage designed to offer exceptional stability and performance. Built with precision integrated thermally matched crossed-roller bearings and stainless steel construction, this stage sets new standards in terms of stability and precision. Featuring a linear 1-inch XYZ travel, the 462-XYZ-LH-M ensures remarkably smooth and accurate movements, complemented by a remarkable angular deviation of better than 100 μrad about any axis. The stainless steel construction extends beyond the stage itself to include angle brackets, actuator mounts, and assembly hardware components, ensuring optimal stability.

The 462-XYZ-LH-M features a left-handed orientation, which enhances user convenience during actuator adjustment. By placing the actuators away from oversized loads, this stage overcomes the limitations often encountered in multi-axis stages derived from traditional tooling industry designs. The Z-axis stage of the 462-XYZ-LH-M exhibits impressive vertical load capacity without relying on springs for support, further enhancing its performance and versatility. Additionally, this stage offers generous English 1/4-20 thread hole patterns for easy mounting, and its mounting base can be removed to achieve a lower profile as needed. Each axis incorporates a non-influencing locking mechanism that minimizes stage motion, ensuring precise positioning. Furthermore, the inclusion of mounting blocks allows for quick and convenient actuator changes, enhancing the stage's flexibility in different applications. Additionally, this stage has proven to maintain sub-micron stability over a temperature change of 10 degrees Celsius, proven by rigorous holograph testing.
