X-DMA-AE Series

Zaber's X-DMA-AE Series devices are computer-controlled, direct-drive linear stages delivering high speed, precision, and reliability in a compact size. A high resolution linear encoder results in repeatability less than 50 nm and consistent movement steps down to 10 nm. Low-friction high-rigidity crossed roller bearings allow for fast step and settle times and anti-creep bearing cages eliminate cage creep during vertical or high acceleration operation. Both the drive and encoder are non-contact, and have no moving cables, resulting in an extremely robust system.

X-DMA-AE are stand-alone units requiring only a standard 24 V or 48 V power supply. They connect to the RS-232 port or USB port of any computer, and can be daisy-chained with any other Zaber products. The daisy-chain also shares power, making it possible for multiple X-Series products to share a single power supply. Like all of Zaber's products, the X-DMA-AE Series is designed to be 'plug and play' and very easy to set up and operate. X-DMA-AE devices also include two digital inputs, a digital output, and an analog input for interfacing with external systems. An event-driven trigger system allows devices to be programmed for stand-alone operation based on I/O, time, or movement stimuli.
