A-123 PIglide AT3 Linear Stage With Air Bearings Datasheet

The stages in the PIglide are equipped with a servo drive linear motor with preloaded air bearings and integrated linear encoder. The combination of these noncontact components results in a frictionless motion platform that offers the highest performance, quality, and lifetime.

A high-force linear motor can drive the stage to top speed within a few milliseconds, and the high-capacity bearings can support payloads up to 60 kg. The laterally opposed, actively preloaded air bearing design in this model allows mounting in any orientation.
