Motorized Stages & Others

Set Up the Stage for High Precision

Installation using a dial gauge. (Recommended)
A dial gauge can be used to ensure that the stage runs parallel to a reference plane installed near the stage mounting attachment by the customer. The degree of parallelization is measured while moving the stage in the direction of the arrows and the installation position is chosen when the dial gauge displacement is minimum.
Trouble-free stage installation using an integral reference plane
High grade stages are equipped with an integral reference plane as shown in the following diagram.

When mounting the stage, parallel installation can be easily performed by lining up the integral reference plane to a reference plane or reference pin of the desired mounting location.

Usage Environment

Please be aware of the surrounding environment whenever using your motorized stage. Avoid use in places close to the upper and lower temperature extremes, places with harsh temperature variation, or places that contain a lot of dust. Please only use your device in environments that fall within the following temperature and humidity ranges.

Temperature: 10 to 40°C
Humidity: 20 to 80% RH
