XSlide® Stages for Scanning and Indexing

November 22, 2013 By Motion Control Tips Editor Leave a Comment

Constructed with hard coat anodized, aluminum dovetail ways and PTFE bearings, XSlides are suitable for either incrementing or scanning applications, XSlides have a load capacity of 35 lbs.(15.9 kg.) horizontally and 10 lbs. (4.5 kg.) vertically. Straight-line accuracy is 0.001″/10” (0.076 mm/25 cm). Repeatability is 0.0001 inch (0.00025 mm).
