Built-in controllers simplify your set-up<br />

Many of our devices are designed with built-in controllers<br />

and drivers (and some with encoders), which reduces your<br />

cost, overall device footprint, and cable clutter. If external<br />

controllers are preferred we can offer compatible external<br />

versions that as well can be daisy chained to further devices.<br />

The choice is yours: enjoy complete automation<br />

through computer control, or use manual control<br />

Zaber devices are perfect for automating your positioning<br />

needs. The free software allows you to send single commands<br />

or complex sequences. Most models offer a manual<br />

control knob so that when you want to, you can position your<br />

device by hand as well. The speed varies depending on how<br />

far you turn the knob in either direction, and the computer<br />

will continue to track the device’s position throughout a manual<br />

move.<br />

Modification options<br />

Custom modifications are very welcome. Bigger modifications<br />

would have to be designed explicitly and my lead to a<br />

custom product. Typical modifications with smallest impact<br />

on the lead time are listed below:<br />

• Dust cover option: When the leadscrew is freely accessible<br />

parts of the manufacturing process can fall into the<br />

axis. Also it protects them from dust and it is easier to<br />

clean the axis.<br />

• Change the axis geometry<br />

––<br />

For length changes the axis can be cut. This has no impacts<br />

on accuracy.<br />

––<br />

The controller can be mounted on the side, or downwards.<br />

––<br />

The threads on the stage top can be custom modified for<br />

best adaption of your application.<br />

• Cables and Connections: Lengths and type of cables can<br />

easily be changed.<br />
