Lift, pan, and tilt motion control stages for range finding and mirror alignment introduced by OES

VAN NUYS, Calif. – Optimal Engineering Systems Inc. (OES) in Van Nuys, Calif., is introducing the LPT-60-60-60 series of lift, pan, and tilt motorized motion-control stages for laser pointing, camera mount, mirror alignment, and range finding in laboratory and manufacturing applications.

These compact stages feature a lift-axis with 60 millimeters of vertical travel, a horizontally mounted Pan-axis (rotary) stage, and vertically mounted tilt-axis (rotary) stage.

The scissor-lift design combined with precision roller bearings and slide rails assures smooth motion control and high parallelism throughout the raising and lowering of the lift table.

180-degree rotation

The pan-axis stages can move as far as 180 degrees of CW or CCW rotation, and the tilt-axis can move as far as 360 degrees of continuous CW or CCW rotation. The LPT-60-60-60-01 stage (shown) is driven by two-phase stepper motors with micro-stepping capabilities.

The vertical repeatability is typically plus-or-minus 5 microns and typical positional accuracy is 15 microns. The LPT-60-60-60-04 is driven with two-phase stepper motors and has quadrature incremental optical encoders for position verification.
