PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P., a leading manufacturer of nanopositioning and precision motion-control equipment for nanotechnology, photonics, semiconductor and life science applications, offers the new M-403 / M-414 series of precision linear translation stages. Combined with the low-cost Mercury™ servo motor controller, these stages form very affordable, high-value, motion control systems.

Features & Advantages:
- 4 Different Precision / Load Classes
- Motor Resolution to 0.012 µm, True Min. Incremental Motion 0.1 µm
- Very Cost-Effective Stand alone and PC-Plug-In Servo Controllers
- Two Drive Options: Leadscrews (Lower cost) and Recirculating Ball Screws (Higher Speed & Longer Lifetime)
- Three Motor Options: DC-Gearhead (low power), DC ActiveDrive Direct (faster) and Stepper Motors (lower cost)
- Travel Ranges 25 mm (1 inch) to 300 mm (12 inch)
- Load Capacity to 50 kg (110 lbs)

These micropositioning stages provide high-performance at a very attractive price. The integrated low-friction ball-screws combine high duty-cycles and velocities with minimum incremental motion of 0.1 µm.

- High Load and Maintenance Free :
All models of the M-400 family are equipped with high-precision linear guiding rails and recirculating ball bearings. Their high load capacity allows them to carry up to 50 kg (110 lbs) and to push/pull up to 100 N (22 lbs). The recirculating ball bearings are maintenance free and immune to the cage migration which can plague crossed roller bearings.

- Typical Applications:
Research & Development, Quality Control, Semiconductor Test Equipment, Precision Automation, Metrology

- Low Cost of Ownership:
A variety of low-cost stand alone and plug-in-board motor controllers is available. These micropositioning stages are especially cost effective in high performance, high-duty-cycle applications, when combined with the with the networkable C-862 Mercury™ controller.
