(Discontinued) LSA-V1 Series

Low vacuum micro motorized linear stages

About This Series

EOL: End of Lifecycle. We are phasing out this product and will not be stocking parts. It might remain available into the future but the lead time and price will likely change depending on parts supply.

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 LSA-V1 series stages are designed to fit into the smallest spaces, without sacrificing performance or features. Small but powerful, these stages have up to 10 mm/s speed and up to 35 N thrust. With a microstep size of less than 25 nm, they allow for reliable ultra-fine positioning in vacuum environments.

The LSA-V1 stages can be wired for plug-and-play use with our X-MCB1 Series stepper motor controllers. Only 7 feedthrough wires are required to control this device in a vacuum chamber.

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.
