RST-DE Series
High precision motorized rotary stages with direct encoders
About This Series
Zaber's RST-DE Series products are motorized rotation stages with built-in direct reading encoders for high accuracy motion. Rated for a 50 kg centered load capacity and 10 N⋅m of torque, they are ideal for high load, angular positioning applications. RST-DE stages are designed for plug-and-play use with any of Zaber's controllers. Set up is easy with AutoDetect. Once connected, the X-MCC controller will automatically detect and configure the RST-DE.

- Panel Mount DB26 with AutoDetect allows the RST-DE to be easily connected to an X-MCC Series controller and ready to use without additional user input.
- 200 step per revolution stepper motor, microstepped up to 256x to provide smooth and precise motion.
- High accuracy obtained with direct reading encoder with 0.2 arc sec resolution.
- Stage top supports kinematic mounting with M2.5 and M6 threaded holes.
- 50.8 mm (2 inch) aperture with H7 tolerance.
- Holes on bottom and two sides provide flexible mounting options.
Easy Set-Up
With AutoDetect, the X-MCC controller will automatically detect and configure the peripheral. Zaber's devices can share both data and power through a daisy-chain, which reduces cabling and makes set-up as easy as 1, 2, 3:
- Connect the X-MCC controller to your computer.
- Connect the controller to the peripheral and plug in the power supply.
- Send instructions or automate your set-up using the Zaber Launcher.
