A-63x PIglide RL Low-Profile Rotation Stage with Air Bearing

A-63x PIglide RL Low-Profile Rotation Stage with Air Bearing

Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The PIglide RL series offers directly driven low-profile rotation stages designed for high precision. These stages are suitable for point-to-point indexing or constant velocity scanning, providing superior travel accuracy, flatness, and wobble performance. Key features include a 3-phase torque motor that is brushless, slotless, and has low cogging torque. An optional absolute encoder provides explicit position information, enhancing efficiency and safety.

Accessories and Options
Available options include incremental or absolute encoders, vacuum feedthrough, magnetic preload for self-locking at rest, PIglide filter and air preparation kit, single or multi-axis motion controllers and servo drives, and customized designs. Base plates made of granite and systems for reducing vibration are also available.

Application Fields
These stages are ideal for optical alignment, wafer inspection, measuring technology, and cleanroom applications due to their friction-free motion.

A-63x PIglide RL Low-Profile Rotation Stage with Air Bearing-1

PIglide RL Low-Profile Rotation Stage with Air BearingFriction-Free, Motorized A-63x ■ 200 mm or 300 mm motion platform diameter ■ Low profile, 60 mm ■ Eccentricity and flatness < 100 nm ■ Option for self-locking at rest by magnetic preload Product Overview The directly driven low-profile rotation stages of the PIglide RL series are designed for the highest precision with low-profile design. Various options can be combined to create a solution ideal for point-to-point indexing or constant velocity scanning. The RL stages offer superior travel accuracy, flatness, and wobble performance. 3-phase torque motor ■ Brushless ■ Slotless ■ Low cogging torque Absolute encoder (optional) Absolute encoders supply explicit position information that enables immediate determination of the position. This means that referencing is not required during switch-on, which increases efficiency and safety during operation. Accessories and options ■ Incremental or absolute encoder ■ Vacuum feedthrough ■ Self-locking at rest by magnetic preload ■ PIglide filter and air preparation kit ■ Single or multi-axis motion controllers and servo drives ■ Multi-axis/customized designs ■ Base plates made of granite and systems for reducing vibration Application fields Optical alignment, wafer inspection, wafer alignment, measuring technology, inspection systems, calibration, scanning. Thanks to the friction-free motion, no particles are formed, which makes PIglide stages ideal for cleanroom applications.

(1) Dependent on the quality of the underlying surface, the payload, orientation, and forces that act on the stage from the outside. Please contact PI for application-specific parameters. The specified values are static (no rotary motion during measuring) and without load. (2) The loads listed assume a supply pressure of 550 kPa (80 psi). Please contact PI if other pressures are required. (3) May be limited by the payload, payload imbalance, controller or drive. (4) Assumes 4096x interpolation. Contact PI for the use of other factors. (5) The specified values are based on error compensation controlled...
