Piezo Motor Linear Stage, Direct Encoder, Integrated Controller
Model: CONEX-AG-LS25-27P
Product Series Overview
Agilis™ Piezo Linear Stage With CONEX™ ControllerThe CONEX-AG-LS25-27P is a piezo motor linear stage integrated with a closed-loop piezo motor controller/driver. The compact Agilis™ AG-LS25-27P linear stage has a built-in direct read linear encoder enabling high position repeatability, for sample positioning, as an optics inserter, for focusing, etc. The innovation in this encoder technology allows the footprint to be maintained while delivering sub-micron bi-directional repeatability.
Based on the Agilis AG-LS25-27 linear stage, but featuring an innovative miniature direct read linear encoder, the linear stage is very compact, but is capable of 27 mm travel, and 0.2 μm MIM.
The CONEX-AGP closed-loop algorithm combined with the direct read linear encoder, provides a system uni-directional repeatability of 0.2 μm. For stability in-position, the user can adjust the dead band parameter that stops dithering when the stage is within a set position tolerance.
The CONEX-AGP is a very compact and inexpensive single axis motion controller and is delivered already pre-configured for the stage. The controller is accessible via USB, which also supplies power to the controller.
For OEM applications, an optional retainer to secure the USB and power cables is available. In addition, RS232 and RS485 communication is available at the board level.
Closed Loop CONEX-AGP Motion Control
The CONEX-AGP is a very compact and inexpensive single axis motion controller with the same driver as the proven Agilis AG-UC2, 2-axis, driver. The controller comes with the familiar CONEX GUI, simple and intuitive to use and conveniently accessible via USB, which also supplies power to the controller. It offers a closed-loop algorithm which is a simplified version of the typical DC servo loop control, and combined with the linear encoder, provides a system bi-directional repeatability of 0.3 µm. For in-position stability, the user can adjust the deadband parameter that stops dithering when the stage is within a set position tolerance. If your application requires even smaller step sizes, better repeatability performance, speeds of millimeters/second or higher load capacities, please see our Super Agilis™ piezo motor linear stage with CONEX controller.
