The F-141 is a cost-optimized multi-axis precision alignment system designed for fast and accurate motion in X, Y, Z & Theta-Y directions. It consists of three V-141.040 three-phase motor-driven, crossed roller bearing stages stacked in a XY+Z arrangement with a custom voice-coil motor-driven, flexure-based rotary stage mounted to the front of the Z stage. The Z-stage is equipped with a pneumatic counterbalance and brake.
The combination of ultra-precision crossed roller bearings and flexures plus compact size offers high performance motion with excellent stiffness and positioning stability. The compact geometry minimizes angular errors for highly repeatable positioning at the probe tip. Direct drive motors and optical encoders enable this system to perform fast scanning motion for alignment over short and long travel ranges. An optional manually adjustable pitch/yaw base for the system allows for full adjustment in all six degrees of freedom. Other configurations are available for applications with different optical axis orientations.
