Key Applications

ANT130LZS stages are ideal for high-precision and high-dynamic vertical positioning applications with minimal footprint requirements, including:

  • Photonics assembly & inspection
  • Fiber alignment & optimization
  • Optics manufacturing, testing & inspection
  • Sensor testing & qualification
  • Semiconductor processing & inspection
  • Research & laboratory applications

Industry-Leading Motion Performance

Outstanding accuracy, position repeatability and in-position stability require extremely fine system resolution. Now available with an improved high-performance encoder option, ANT130LZS can easily achieve minimum incremental steps of 1 nm. Our direct-drive technology exhibits no hysteresis or backlash, enabling accurate and repeatable nanometer-scale motion. Plus, the minimally-influencing counterbalance design opposes the gravitational forces induced by your payload, resulting in industry-leading performance and optimum thermal stability.

Noncontact Direct-Drive

Only noncontact direct-drive technology offers the robust, accurate and high-speed positioning necessary for mass production of precision devices. ANT130LZS stages use our advanced direct-drive technology to achieve the highest level of positioning performance. Coupled with anti-creep, crossed-roller bearings, ANT130LZS delivers ultra-smooth, consistent motion with outstanding dynamic characteristics to enhance your process capability. The optimized drive and bearing combination, packaged in a low-profile form factor, offers distinct performance advantages in many applications such as high-precision positioning, fiber alignment, optics manufacturing and inspection, sensor testing and scanning processes that demand smooth and precise motion.

Flexible System Design

The ANT130LZS family has universal mounting and tabletop patterns that allow for easy system integration. Two, three or more axes can be easily combined for flexible system designs and multi-axis configurations. ANT130LZS stages are easily combined with other products -- including ANT130L, ANT130XY, ANT130R, ANT20G, AGS gantries and more -- to provide complex, multiple degree-of-freedom motion and positioning solutions.

Integration (Required)

Aerotech offers both standard and custom integration services to help you get your system fully operational as quickly as possible. The following standard integration options are available for this system. Please consult Aerotech if you are unsure what level of integration is required, or if you desire custom integration support with your system.

Option Description
-TAS Integration - Test as system
 
Testing, integration, and documentation of a group of components as a complete system that will be used together (ex: drive, controller, and stage). This includes parameter file generation, system tuning, and documentation of the system configuration.
-TAC Integration - Test as components
 
Testing and integration of individual items as discrete components. This is typically used for spare parts, replacement parts, or items that will not be used or shipped together (ex: stage only). These components may or may not be part of a larger system
