Dual-axis_stages
The ANT95-XY and ANT95-XY-H feature high resolution (5 nm), repeatability (50 nm), and accuracy (250 nm).



Aerotech NanoTranslation (Pittsburgh, PA) cross-roller-bearing, linear motor, dual-axis stages are the newest release and continue the evolution of ANT series stages. The ANT95-XY and ANT95-XY-H are three-piece designs that allow travel in two dimensions (X and Y). The sleek design provides an extremely low profile of only 60 mm and a compact footprint. The stage comes with proprietary direct-drive motor technology, noncontact linear encoders, limits, an integrated cable management system, and two grades of accuracy. Additionaly features include:

  • Integrated low profile XY linear motor stage.
  • 25 mm x 25 mm or 50 mm x 50 mm travel.
  • Noncontact, non-cogging, frictionless direct-drive – zero backlash or hysteresis.
  • High resolution (5 nm), repeatability (50 nm), and accuracy (250 nm).
  • In-position stability of 3 nm.
  • Anti-creep cross-roller bearings.
  • High dynamic performance.
