LRQ-V1 Series

Low vacuum motorized linear stages

About This Series

For more information about the basics of a vacuum system and considerations to keep in mind when gathering requirements for your application, read our technical article, "Motion Device Design Considerations for Vacuum Applications".

Zaber's LRQ-V1 Series devices are low-vacuum, computer-controlled, motorized linear stages with high stiffness, load, and lifetime capabilities in a compact size.

At only 36 mm high, these vacuum stages are excellent for applications where a low profile is required. The LRQ-V1's innovative design allows speeds up to 205 mm/s and loads up to 100 kg. Like all of Zaber's products, the LRQ-V1 Series is designed to be very easy to set up and operate. These stages can bolt together into an XY system.

These stages are wired with a male D-sub 15 connector for plug-and-play use with our X-MCC Series stepper motor controllers. Simply cut the connector off for flying leads in vacuum and match the wire connections outside of the vacuum for an easy connection. Our handy kits include free software, and all of the accessories that you will need to get the stage running right out of the box.

  2. 200 step per revolution stepper motor, microstepped up to 256x to provide smooth and precise motion.
  3. Low vacuum compatible stepper motors rated to 10-3 Torr.
  4. Stage top supports metric M3 and M6 threaded holes with M4 centre mount.
  5. Travel lengths from 75 to 600 mm, with custom lengths available.
  6. Innovative design allows for superior speed & load capabilities; up to 205 mm/s speed & 100 kg load.
  7. Multiple LRQ-SV1 stages can be assembled in XY or XYZ configurations without additional hardware.

Easy Set-Up

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:

  1. Connect the controller to your computer.
  2. Via the vacuum's feedthrough, connect data and power between the controller and the positioner.
  3. Send instructions or automate your set-up using the Zaber Launcher.
