Linear Stage Features New Drive Mechanism

Bell-Everman's new ServoSpline positioning stage offers a unique drive mechanism that provides backlash-free motion and simplified control.

ServoSpline is an extension of a classic rack-and-pinion design that provides simple motion commands and positions the stage in the x- and y-axis by independently driving the two splines. It provides engineers with a reliable stage that is easy to deploy. Technical advantages include no backlash, long wearing and easy implementation.

This positioning stage can serve in a wide variety of machines requiring easily-implemented motion stages. Applications include 3D printers, automated assembly, dispensing, engraving, additive manufacturing, biomedical titer plate indexing and pipetting for diagnostic equipment.
