Zaber Technologies

Zaber’s X-DMQ-DE Series devices are computer-controlled, direct-drive voice coil driven, linear stages with high acceleration and precision capabilities in a compact size. They are stand-alone units requiring only a standard 24 V or 48 V power supply. At only 30 mm high, these miniature stages are excellent for applications where a low profile is required. The X-DMQ-DE’s innovative design allows speeds up to 1400 mm/s and loads up to 10 kg. Like all of Zaber’s products, the X-DMQ-DE Series is designed to be ‘plug and play’ and very easy to set up and operate.

Zaber’s X-RST-DE Series products are motorized rotation stage devices with built-in controllers and 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, high precision, angular positioning applications.

They are stand-alone units requiring only a standard 24-48 V power supply. An indexed knob provides smooth manual control at variable speeds in both directions for versatile operation even without a computer. Press and hold to switch between velocity mode and position mode, turn to move the stage, and press to stop.

Zaber’s ASR series microscope stages combined with our X-MCB2 series two-axis controllers
are designed as replacements for manual stages on upright and inverted microscopes or for
stand-alone operation as scanning stages.

Zaber’s X-LRQ-SV2 Series devices are high-vacuum, computer-controlled, motorized linear stages with high stiffness, load, and lifetime capabilities in a compact size. They are stand-alone units requiring only a standard 24 V or 48 V power supply.
