A multi-axis stage stack

using Aerotech’s MPS50SV

and MPS50SL stages.

Aerotech’s MPS-SV series lift stages provide high-performance

elevation motion in a compact, cost-effective design. Offered in

two sizes (MPS50SV and MPS75SV), these lift stages are perfect

for applications ranging from light-duty laboratory research

to high-duty-cycle production processes. Multi-axis stage

configurations can be assembled easily with other MPS linear

and rotary stages using the multitude of adapter brackets and

mounting compatibility inherent in the entire MPS stage family

designs.

High-Accuracy Construction

All MPS-SV stages feature a precision-ground ball screw and

preloaded crossed-roller bearings providing smooth and accurate

geometric performance, exceptional accuracy and repeatability,

and 0.05 µm minimum incremental motion capabilities. The

MPS50SV is also offered with a lead-screw drive option for more

cost-sensitive applications.

MPS-SV motor options include a DC servomotor with rotary

encoder and a stepper motor. A precision-machined wedge

design and lateral constraint system provide high stiffness and

load capacity while at the same time providing proper constraint

of lateral motions.

Vacuum and Mounting Options

As with all MPS-series stages, the MPS-SV stages are available

in an optional vacuum preparation to 10-6 torr that includes a

vacuum-rated connector.

An optional mounting plate provides direct mounting to both

English and metric optical breadboard tables. The inherent

mounting compatibility of all MPS stages allows for simple

mounting in multi-axis arrangements.
