TRA DC Servo Actuators

TRA DC servo linear actuators are our lowest cost solution for general OEM and research applications. They incorporate an excellent space saving design that allows them to be used with a wide variety of manual stages, mirror mounts, and OEM applications. TRA actuators feature a slim design minimizes the space used when upgrading a manual stage or optical mount to a motorized solution, a hard-coated steel ball tip that minimizes contact surface wear compared to other designs that use regular steel ball tips, and highly reliable optical limit switches.

Complete Your Conex System

CONEX-PS is an essential need to supply power to your Conex devices and it is purchased separately. The supplied power can be shared by modules using the optional CONEX-PS-CB power chain cable; one cable is included in this kit and additional cables can be purchased separately.

We also offer the CONEX-BP base plate which is used to securely mount up to 6 CONEX-AGP motion controllers to save you space and bring you convenience.

Compact DC Servo Motion Controller

In terms of size, the CONEX-CC motion controller is comparable to a deck of cards. Up to six CONEX-CC controllers can fit on a CONEX-BP baseplate. Both controller and stage are compact and ideal for space-confined or access-limited applications. The low-noise linear amplifier of the CONEX-CC provides the optimum drive solution for low-power DC motors. It delivers smooth motion, with less electrical noise and significantly less motor heating.

Out-of-the-box PC Control

For out-of-the box control, the CONEX controller is preconfigured and delivered with the motion device. To start moving a sample or sensor, it simply requires plugging in the power supply, connecting the USB communication and starting the free motion GUI. The integrated USB interface, provides a fast ubiquitous communication protocol. For OEM's or security sensitive applications, RS-232 and RS-485 communications are embedded onto the CONEX controller.

Simple Programming with Extensive Language Options

Advanced application programming is simplified by using mnemonic ASCII commands. Newport provides a free GUI that allows the user to access and execute over 60 intuitive ASCII commands. A managed Microsoft .NET assembly (DLL) is provided for programming custom applications in C#, Labview, Matlab, Python and other .NET compatible languages.

Scalable Architecture

CONEX motion controllers can be connected via daisy chain to create multi-axis systems. For added convenience, the power can be shared with up to 5 CONEX-CC modules using the optional CONEX-PS-CB power chain cable. This allows for a convenient low cost multi-axis system.
