RV160PP In Stock

The RV160PP by Newport is a High-Performance Precision Rotation Stage designed to meet exacting rotational accuracy requirements. This rotation stage’s construction features meticulously ground bearing surfaces. These surfaces form the foundation for impeccable rotation accuracy. Exceptional load-bearing capabilities, especially for off-center loads, are made possible by a dual arrangement of preloaded bearings, thoughtfully optimized to fit within a compact footprint. The stage's monolithic design stands as a testament to both enhanced rigidity and sustained dynamic performance, ensuring stability during operation. At the heart of this stage's unwavering rotational precision lies a meticulously crafted worm gear. This gear, expertly ground and hardened to exacting standards, guarantees precise and dependable rotation. Augmenting this accuracy is a rotary encoder securely affixed to the worm gear's shaft. This component imparts an impressive position feedback resolution of 0.001° in standard configurations, underscoring the stage's commitment to precision. A direct reading optical encoder, seamlessly integrated with the moving platen, further elevates the stage's precision, enriching both accuracy and resolution levels. A distinctive feature of the RV160PP is its mini-step drive, which enables the stage to achieve high angular speeds of up to 20°/s.
