Low-Profile Rotary Table

AUBURN, Mass., July 12, 2011 — PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. has released a higher-precision version of its M-660 low-profile rotary table.
Driven by piezo motors that enable a profile of 14 mm, the new model is equipped with a high-accuracy direct measuring encoder and provides eight times the position resolution of the existing version.
The M-660 rotary table can accelerate to velocities of 720°/s, with an unlimited travel range, and its directly coupled precision optical encoder resolves positions down to 4 µrad (0.00023°), providing phase-lag-free, backlash-free feedback to the servo controller. Its self-clamping ceramic drive provides high stability, with no energy consumption at rest and no heat generation.
Applications include semiconductor/test equipment, metrology and optical instrumentation.
The PILine motor principle is nonmagnetic and vacuum-compatible.
Mass and inertia are reduced significantly compared with conventional rotation stages because of the lightweight direct-drive ceramic motor, operating without gears or magnets. The net result is fast start/stop behavior, and precise bidirectional speed and position control, which are critical for high-speed motion contouring.
A motion controller for piezo motors is available to take advantage of the specific motion characteristics of ultrasonic ceramic motors. USB interfacing and a solid software and driver package (LabView, Matlab) for seamless integration are included.
