Most stages employ three primary types of guide mechanism for their precision positioning stages. Dovetail, Linear Ball, and Cross Roller guides compose most of the MISUMI product line. Each mechanism has advantages and choosing the best stage for your application ...
Selecting the right stage for your application can seem like a daunting task, especially with the variety available. An engineer might not want to spend too much time determining which stage to use when there are plenty of other design ...
Positioning stages are differentiated by the means used to control the position of the stage platform, either by manual control, via a positional knob, or motor control, via a stepper motor. These are two of the most common types of ...
Introduction to Ball Screws The main function of a ball screw system is the efficient transfer of rotational motion to linear motion, sometimes to extremely high degrees of precision, accuracy, and repeatability. Ball screws are typically differentiated by the manner ...
Question: Dear MISUMI Engineering Team: Hi, we purchased a MISUMI single axis high precision stage, but then needed to modify the setup for space constraints. We had to mount the motor next to the stage instead of directly inline with ...
