Custom Gimbal with Through-Bore Slip Ring
The Challenge: A customer needed continuous two-axis rotation for a new instrument but also required clear, unobstructed access through the center to mount a stationary object. Standard rotary stages include an aperture, but running cables through a continuously rotating stage can cause cables to tangle. Zaber's standard gimbals include optional slip rings to provide unrestricted rotation with cables but this component occupies the rotary stage aperture. The Solution: Our Custom Engineering team designed a custom miniature gimbal that integrates a through-bore slip ring.

Custom 2 Axis System
This image shows a custom 2 axis system consisting of two 100 mm travel LRT-AEC linear stages and a RST240B-E Series rotary table for high load vertical and rotary positioning. The LRT stages use the lockstep synchronization feature of the X-MCC to move together for improved load capacity and stiffness. A custom base plate for the RST240 allows for flexible mounting and full access through the 101.6 mm aperture.

IP65 Rated Rotary Stage
Applications in dirty environments such as machining, outdoors, or washdown environments typically require ingress protection (IP) rated motion control. Shown below is an X-RST240B-AE56 high precision rotary stage with optional ingress protection. The integrated controller and stage internals are protected against dust and water to a rating of IP65 (protected from all dust ingress and low-pressure water jets in any direction). Additionally, the fully integrated controller means you don’t have to worry about designing a separate enclosure to house your control electronics.

Electrical Slip Ring for Daisy Chaining Through Rotary Stages
This X-RSW-E rotary stage is equipped with a built-in slip ring. The slip ring allows daisy chaining power and data to products on top of the X-RSW-E without tangling wires as the stage rotates.

Custom Gimbal
This system is a high-load, fine-accuracy gimbal. Two X-RST120AK-DE50 rotary stages are used to position the platform to fractions of a degree in both the azimuth and elevation axes. The height and spacing of the gimbal can be customized for each application. A slip ring can be added to eliminate cable tangling during rotation.

Custom X-RST-DE with Manual Knob
This custom X-RST-DE rotary stage uses a dual shaft motor with a knob for manual control of the stage. The X-RST-DE gear requires a lot of force to rotate, so a larger knob requiring less torque from the user was added. The knob can be used when the stage is powered on or off. Since this stage has a direct encoder, the controller keeps track of the stage position if the manual knob is used to rotate the stage, even when it's powered.

Two-Axis Rotary System: Miniature Gimbal
This gimbal setup consists of two X-RSM rotary stages mounted together with an AP146 adaptor plate and uses an AB147 angle bracket for a mounting surface that rotates about both axes. We can also make customized brackets to fit your needs.

Light Load Custom Gimbal
This custom gimbal uses two X-RSW60A-E03 rotary stages to create a gimbal. Based on the specifications of the X-RSW-E stages, this gimbal was designed to be used with very light loads (< 1 kg).

Custom Rotary Stage with a Built-In Slip Ring
This custom rotary stage has a built-in slip ring that can pass electrical service to a device mounted to the rotary stage. The slip ring allows for continuous rotation without cable tangling or wrap up. This customization is available to simplify integration of daisy-chaining to rotating Zaber devices or customer devices.

Custom Two-Axis Rotary Gimbal
This gimbal system consists of an X-RSB for the lower axis with an X-RSW driving the upper axis. The devices are daisy-chained together through a slip ring, which allows daisy-chaining power and data to the X-RSW without tangling wires as the stage rotates. This setup can easily be customized to accommodate different size working envelopes or be mounted to work with an X-RST for higher accuracy systems.
