Linear tables
Linear stages and miniature stages are devices that are used in automation technology, measurement technology, medical technology and other areas to enable precise linear movements. They are often used in applications where components, tools or measuring devices need to be moved in a straight line.
- Linear tables: These are larger and are used for applications where larger loads need to be moved. They consist of a platform or carriage that is mounted on one or more guide rails and can slide along these rails. A motor or pneumatic drive moves the carriage along the rails, resulting in precise linear movement. These linear tables can be available in different sizes and load capacities, depending on the requirements of the application.
- Miniature stages: In contrast to linear stages, miniature stages are smaller and are used for applications with lower loads and limited installation space. They work in a similar way to larger linear stages, but consist of smaller components and have a more compact design. Miniature stages are often used in applications such as microscopy, optics, electronics assembly and other areas where precise and delicate linear movements are required but available space is limited.
Both linear stages and miniature stages can be motorized, which means they are powered by an electric motor, or they can be pneumatic, where compressed air is used to move the carriage. They are crucial for automation and precision in a variety of applications and industries. One of the leading manufacturers in the field of linear technology is Schneeberger.
