Linear Stages Simplify Design

11 April 2016

Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions has released the WGS motorized linear stages. The WGS family of linear slides uses technology that greatly improves moment load stability over previously released technologies. The WGS can now be directly coupled to size 17 and size 23 step motors to provide a compact, powerful design. Utilizing the patented bolt-on design, the integrated motorized WGS solution helps simplify design by eliminating assembly time and previously required couplings.

With over 20 lead screw configurations and multiple motor size and stack options, the number of possible custom solutions is virtually endless. The WGS motorized linear stage is ideal for various applications, including blood analyzers, microscopy stages, auto-samplers, industrial x-y stages, semiconductor inspection equipment and other custom x, y or z stages that require a self-contained guide rail and drive mechanism.
