Motorized Micropositioners

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document is a technical catalog from Ealing, focusing on optical and opto-mechanical components and systems. It includes sections on optics, opto-mechanics, coatings, and optical instruments, with an emphasis on motorized micropositioners and their control systems.

Optics: This section details various optical components such as lenses, microscope components, prisms, polarizers, filters, pinholes, mirrors, and beamsplitters. These components are crucial for manipulating light in scientific and industrial applications.

Opto-mechanics: The catalog describes components like rails, mounting hardware, mirror and component mounts, manual micro positioners, and motorized positioners, essential for precise alignment and positioning of optical components.

Motorized Micropositioners: Ealing offers systems such as LabMotion™, MotorDriver™, and EncoderDriver™ for precise remote positioning. These systems replace manual micrometers with motorized actuators, providing sub-micrometer control. MotorDriver™ offers open-loop control, while EncoderDriver™ provides closed-loop control with positional feedback.

MotorDriver™ Linear Actuators: These actuators, available in travel ranges of 10 mm to 50 mm, offer open-loop sub-micrometer control and are designed for easy integration into existing systems.

EncoderDriver™ System: This system allows computer control of up to 8 motorized actuators, featuring closed-loop encoder operation, high resolution, and repeatability, suitable for OEM systems and light industrial applications.

Control Electronics and Software: The EncoderDriver™ Control Card provides full PID control for up to eight actuators, with software for programming intricate movement sequences, compatible with IBM-compatible computers.

EncoderDriver Control Card: Available in PCI or ISA bus form-factors, these cards control up to eight EncoderDriver actuators without external power supplies, supporting position and velocity modes.

Specifications: The control card operates with 1-8 EncoderDrivers, with a maximum motor current of 500 mA, requiring operating voltages of +5V, +12V, and -12V, and is compatible with TTL/CMOS encoder inputs.

EncoderDriver Linear Actuator Packages: These packages offer closed-loop motorized control with travel ranges of 10 mm to 50 mm, featuring interchangeable tips and high precision with resolutions as low as 0.02 µm.

Precision Linear Actuators T-LA Series: Designed for use with linear translation stages, these actuators offer 0.1 µm resolution and travel ranges of 13 mm, 28 mm, and 60 mm, compatible with vacuum environments.

Accessories: Various accessories are available, including serial adapters, USB converters, data cables, and power supplies, to support the integration and operation of the EncoderDriver systems.

KT-CON3 Three Axis Device Controller: A compact, standalone controller for T-Series products, controlling up to three axes without software, suitable for environments like vacuum chambers.

T-Joy™ Programmable Joystick Controller: A programmable joystick controller for up to three independent axes, compatible with all T-Series actuators, offering flexibility in setup.

Linear Translation Stages: These stages offer travel ranges of 28mm and 60mm with load capacities of 156N and 209N, respectively, compatible with T-LA Series actuators.

T-LSR Series Motorized Stages: High-performance motorized stages with travel up to 300mm and a resolution of 0.248 um, supporting high loads and configurable in XYZ setups.

Short Travel Stages with Integrated Controller: Available in 13mm and 28mm travel versions, offering 0.1 um resolution, suitable for XYZ configurations.

Precision Interferometer: A high-precision interferometer supporting Michelson, Fabry-Perot, and Twyman-Green modes, ideal for advanced optical experiments.

Specifications:

Mirror Control: Highly precise, with adjustments as fine as one micron per division of the micrometer head.
Optical Flatness: Mirrors and beamsplitters are flat to a quarter wavelength for uniform interference patterns.
Larger Optics: Uses optics with a diameter of 3.2 cm, enhancing experimental results.
