Vacuum-compatible compact rotation stage; 2-phase stepper motor; 360 ° rotational angle; 10 N load capacity; 20 °/s maximum angular velocity; vacuum compatible to 10⁻⁷ hPa; 2 m cable length
RS-40 V7 Compact Rotation Stage Suitable for Vacuum
Precision Positioning
- Vacuum compatible up to 10-7 hPa
- Unlimited travel range
- Repeatability to 87 µrad
- 20 mm Ø aperture
- Reference switch
Standard-class rotation stage
Worm drive. Aperture with 20 mm Ø. Reference switch.
Reduced outgassing especially for use in vacuum environments
Most notably, for the lubrication of the guides and the spindle a material with particularly low outgassing is used. This allows a bakeout temperature of up to 80° C.
Higher quality for applications in high vacuum
In this case, special components suitable for high vacuum are used, such as motor, measuring system, and limit switches. In addition, the surface is made of uncoated aluminum and the spindles and guides are made of stainless steel. With this, the PI V7 vacuum class is reached, which means up to 10-7 hPa.
Drive
Stepper motor with gearhead.
Application fields
Vacuum chambers. Research. Beamline instrumentation. Microscopy. Electronics assembly and inspection.

Note on cable length: Fixed cable, firmly attached to the product
At PI, technical data is specified at 22 ±3 °C. Unless otherwise stated, the values are for unloaded conditions. Some properties are interdependent. The designation "typ." indicates a statistical average for a property; it does not indicate a guaranteed value for every product supplied. During the final inspection of a product, only selected properties are analyzed, not all. Please note that some product characteristics may deteriorate with increasing operating time.

Technologie

Moteurs électriques rotatifs
Les moteurs électriques rotatifs tels que les moteur DC ou moteurs pas à pas sont utilisés en liaison avec des entraînements à vis.

Vide
Manipulation précautionneuse, locaux adéquats : PI dispose non seulement de l'équipement nécessaire pour la qualification de matériaux, de composants et de produits finis mais s'appuie aussi sur de nombreuses années d'expérience en matière de systèmes de positionnement sous vide et ultra vide.
