    This image shows Zaber's low vacuum actuators and translation stages set up inside a vacuum chamber to precisely drive the target and optics.

    "We use Zaber actuators because they are so easy to daisy-chain in a vacuum, and we can think about the experiments we want to do without having to worry about complex wiring or programming. They save us time and money. I would happily recommend them."

    – Dr. Fergal O’Reilly, Research Physics & Innovation Officer, University College Dublin Physics Department

TSB-V Series Low Vacuum Translation Stages

Zaber's TSB-V Series of translation stages are ball bearing linear stages with 28mm or 60mm of travel. They are compatible with our low vacuum T-NA-SV1 series miniature linear actuators and can be used in x-y stage configuration.

These vacuum compatible translation stages use vacuum compatible greases and epoxies and non-anodized components. These translation stages have been used successfully in vacuum applications down to 10-6 Torr.
